Reviews" Dance Science is interesting, pragmatic, and reflective of current knowledge within the fields of dance anatomy and kinesiology. Teachers and students will find it a useful guide with practical approaches." --Denise Puirvis, MFA, Journal of Dance Education, "Grossman's book presents facts and information, but also shows considerable sensitivity to themes of 'ownership,' 'mindfulness,' and 'empowerment.' It has engaging evidenced-based narrative, clearly written experiential activities, and challenging problem-solving exercises. This is the kind of book I can see on everyone's shelf." --Gigi Berardi, Journal of Dance Medicine and Science, "Dance Science: Anatomy: Movement Analysis, Conditioning is a brilliant, logically presented dancer's self improvement manual. For the dedicated dancer or determined advanced student there is real gold to be mined in these pages." --Nancy Lorraine, Midwest Book Review, " Dance Science is interesting,pragmatic, and reflective of current knowledge within the fields of dance anatomy and kinesiology. Teachers and students will find it a useful guide with practical approaches." --Denise Puirvis, MFA, Journal of Dance Education, "Dance Science is interesting, pragmatic, and reflective of current knowledge within the fields of dance anatomy and kinesiology.

SynopsisWinner of: Certificate of Merit, Association of Medical Illustrators Rather than focusing on dance injuries, this book takes a positive approach showing what a dancer can do to dance better, which, in turn, will decrease injury rates. It presents human anatomy and motion in a functional, dance-specific way that teaches the readers to appreciate and take ownership of their bodies through a tour of the musculoskeletal system and movement analysis. The book is divided into three parts. Part one, Anatomy, describes the specific characteristics that affect motion at each individual joint, demonstrated by a variety of hands-on activities for readers to perform. Part two, Movement Analysis, discusses muscles that produce movement and introduces readers to a system of movement analysis. Part three, Conditioning, provides a practical, integrative approach to exercise for enhanced performance. The written material is accompanied by anatomical line drawings commissioned for the book, photographs, and an assortment of experiential activities specifically designed for dancers.
