Práctica de la danza
Bailar es algo más que aprender unos pasos. La danza no se reduce únicamente a aspectos físicos y, sin embargo, el cuerpo es el instrumento del bailarín. Conservarlo sano, reconocer a tiempo las sobrecargas y prevenir las lesiones son condiciones imprescindibles para bailar durante mucho tiempo y sin molestias. Ya sea en el ballet clásico, el hip hop o el jazz, la salsa, el claqué o el baile moderno, la medicina de la danza proporciona conocimientos esenciales a los bailarines de todo tipo, que estos sabrán aprovechar. Ya sea en la clase, durante el entrenamiento o en los ensayos cotidianos, los bailarines y los teóricos de la danza consideran que los conocimientos de la medicina, el análisis de los movimientos y las ciencias deportivas representan la base para el comportamiento responsable y la interacción diaria en esta disciplina. El conocimiento de los aspectos físicos facilita también un acceso amplio a los procesos de percepción, cada vez más importantes en la práctica contemporánea de la danza. Esta obra proporciona al bailarín un conocimiento práctico y comprensible de la medicina, el análisis del movimiento, las ciencias del deporte, la dinámica espiral y la osteopatía.

Das Leben ist nicht, wie oft angenommen wird, aus einem Konkurrenzkampf heraus entstanden, sondern aus Kooperation, Austausch, Zusammenschluss. Aber wo wir auch hinschauen: wir ziehen gegen das «kleine Leben» in den Krieg und zerstören die lebensnotwendige Vielfalt. Auch nützliche Bakterien werden als Feinde betrachtet und mit scharfem Geschütz bekämpft. Dabei wissen wir heute, dass Mikroorganismen, oder kürzer gesagt, Mikroben, nützlich sind und es gut wäre, mit den kleinen Lebewesen Frieden zu schließen, denn sie sind in jeder Hinsicht unsere Verbündeten.
