OFFSET MED is a community-based network that connects the gap between urban athletes and professionals who care about health, longevity, and performance. We provide a platform that brings passionate people together resulting in an interdisciplinary approach that addresses health disparities unique to the urban athlete community. Today, we have partnered with DANCE PREHAB, a dance medicine organization that teaches dancers how to dance smarter in order to dance harder, for a group discussion and workshop. Both organizations were founded by dancers who are passionate about delivering practical educational content. We hope that the culmination of our knowledge and experiences can impact performing artists everywhere to have better self-care practices and a higher self-awareness when it comes to performance training.

Questions we answer from the live Q&A section:

1) For a health care provider who does not have previous performing arts background, what type of information or background experiences do you need to dive into working with the performing artists?

2) What should dance teachers know from a movement and health care provider perspective?

3) What are common injury trends within the breaking community?
