Where Dancers Get Hurt

📣🎉

Most of these injuries are PREVENTABLE. A structured warm-up changes everything.

You just saw the numbers 95% of dancers will be injured during their career But you are here That means that you already made a choice.

RAMP Is Your Plan.

This module gives you a concrete framework — the RAMP protocol — so you never improvise your warm-up again..

Why is WARM UP important?

  1. Prepares body and mind to meet the challenges of class, rehearsal, performance
  2. Reduces risk of injury
  3. Acts on 3 systems: Tap the image to discover this systems

The RAMP Framework

Questo è un paragrafo pronto a contenere creatività, esperienze e storie geniali.

WHAT: Dynamic movements · Full range of motion · Session-specific patterns WHY: ↑ Synovial fluid · ↑ Dynamic ROM · ↑ Load tolerance ⚠️ AVOID sustained passive stretching
WHAT: Multi-plane movements · Multi-muscle groups · Adapt to your style WHY: ↑ Neuromuscular activation · ↑ Motor control · ↑ Proprioception · ↑ Embodied awareness
WHAT: High-intensity patterns · ↑ Speed and power · Dance-specific skills · Active flexibility WHY: ↑ Neural speed · ↑ Stage confidence · ↑ Explosive capacity
WHAT: Cardio activities · Min 5 min · Ideally 10–15 min WHY: ↑ Heart rate · ↑ Blood flow · ↑ Core temperature · ↑ O₂ to muscles

Use this side of the card to provide more information about a topic. Focus on one concept. Make learning and communication more efficient.

Static stretching at the start of class is a good warm-up.

Passive stretching inhibits force production by 5–8% and increases injury risk. Save it for your cool-down. 💪

Dynamic movements mobilise joints better than static holds.

Dynamic movement increases synovial fluid flow and maintains force production.

Dynamic movements mobilise joints better than static holds.

Minimum 10–15 minutes needed for full physiological effect.

Potentiate can include dance-specific skill practice.

Yes — turns, jumps and complex patterns belong here.

The same warm-up works for all dance styles.

Ballet ≠ Hip-hop ≠ Contemporary. Always adapt to your specific demands.

RAMP ensures all warm-up components are included.

That is the power of the protocol — nothing is forgotten, every time.

You've mastered the RAMP framework.

You came in with stiff ankles and a racing mind.

You leave with a plan, a protocol, and a reason.

Your career is protected.
