Injuries

At DHDC, our number one priority is the health and safety of our students. We work hard to prevent injuries and keep our dancers in top performance condition. As with any sport or physical activity, injuries can occur. Please see our current injury policy put in place to help our dancers to heal their bodies when needed.

Injury Policy: Dancers with any injuries requiring major modifications to movement should sit and observe rehearsals until fully healed and medically cleared by a doctor. Dancers with injuries requiring major modifications to movement will not be able to participate in performances until fully healed and medically cleared by a doctor. Dancers are responsible for either sitting and observing classes or self modifying movement within classes based on their comfort level due to injury. Dancers should inform and update instructors of any injuries and doctor recommendations. Injuries lasting longer than 2 weeks, require written notice from a medical professional outlining the details of the injury and healing plan in order to return to classes and rehearsals.
