Dance/NYC and the Harkness Center for Dance Injuries, on behalf of Dance/USA's Taskforce on Dancer Health, have combined forces to bring dance medicine screening and services information to independent, freelance and pick-up company dancers. This free-of-charge meeting on March 9 will serve as a platform for the freelance dance community's screening initiative by Dance/NYC and HCDI, planned to begin in Spring 2010.


Additionally, information on injury statistics in dance, important financial information in relation to injury, and healthcare options and resources for the dance community will be provided. 

HCDI and Dance/NYC's collaboration has been created to supply the local, independent dancers with a body of knowledge that will impact their health and career longevity.

Refreshments provided.
