Help dancers befriend their bodies, boost their confidence, and instill lifelong wellness skills with this workbook.

For too long, dance education and dance culture have placed looks, performance, and competition before the mental and physical health of dancers. Dance Educators play a special role in breaking the harmful traditions and practices that have been perpetuated in dance culture through generations.

In this printable workbook you’ll find:

• materials that will help dance educators understand why body confidence is so important to the next generation of dancers

• explanations for why it's especially difficult for dancers to have positive body image

• action steps you can begin to take today to develop body kind habits and practices inside, and outside the dance classroom

• worksheets, and conversation cards for dancers

• scripts and prompts for teachers on how to navigate tough body image conversations, and how to create body kind, inclusive dance dress codes and costume choices

If you’re a dance teacher who wants to instill body confidence in their students, but been unsure of where to start, or what to say or do (or not do), this is the guide to set you up for success!
