Danscend's Dance Organization Staff Certification Training
As the outward-facing ambassadors of dance organizations, staff are often confronted with intense situations they may not know how to handle. This course gives them the tools to confidently and effectively contribute to the success of dance organizations.
A Danscend mental wellness certification demonstrates that dance organization staff are dedicated to providing a safe and supportive learning environment for dancers. It highlights their commitment to promoting mental health awareness and addressing issues like coping with acute stress responses, recognizing signs of a mental health challenge, and creating a safer, healthier environment for dancers.
Change Begins with You!
As both dancers and educators, we are all too familiar with the fact that dancers spend hours every day training their bodies and honing their craft, but there is little to no attention paid to training their minds as well. Many dancers struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, depression, negative self-talk, and maintaining a positive body image. And they are told to leave all of this outside the dance studio.
After working together in the education field for seven years, the idea of Danscend was born because of an overwhelming need that we observed in our students. No strangers to the need for mental health awareness, we both have wrestled with various issues in our professional dance careers as well.
So, we created trainings for those at the forefront of dance culture. Together, we can change the industry one dancer at a time!
