Tuesday, 11.08.2020 + Friday, 21.08.2020, 18:00-20:00 h, ta.med online class

Online presentation (90 min + 30 min questions/discussion)

In this current situation dancers are affected in many ways. These times at home without regular training and rehearsals are raising many new questions, also concerning nutrition.
In the past months everyone was challenged to provide food for themselves, cook daily and taking care about one’s own nutrition more than maybe normally. For some this may be joyous experience for others it might be connected to various difficulties.
For dancers this period is being shaped by unusual training routines, changed daily rhythms and new eating behaviour which can lead to changes in the body.

In this workshop the basics of a generally healthy diet for dancers are being highlighted. A focus will be on the current time, its problems like loss and gain of weight and increased consumption of semiluxury food like sweets or alcohol. Furthermore, topics like injury and regeneration, the advantages and disadvantages of complete self-subsistence will be covered and how these insights can be taken into the coming again more active future.

The 90-minutes presentation is followed by a Q&A session with discussion.
