Know your body - avoid injuries! 

Functional Dance Anatomy was initially written for dancers, students og dance and teachers of all dance forms. Yet many others can also benefit from reading this book, such as those who work with figure skating, gymnastics, rhytmic gymnastics, and more. 

The book has four main themes. 

• An anatomic description of the bones and muscles
• Muscles' origin, insertion point and function
• Specific exercises to strengthen muscles needed for dancing technically and anatomically correctly
• Strecthing exercises for avoiding pain and injuries

Functional Dance Anatomy provides the necessary knowledge about how the muscles function, which muscles the dancer uses, and when one should technically use the different muscles in dance.
