Research in Dance

Training Sport Teams

Methods, Processes, and Practical Applications

Principles, Strategies, and Programming for the Strength and Conditioning Professionals

By Ali Duffy

By Tim Caron

A comprehensive guide to conducting, presenting, and publishing dance research. Dance research is an ever-growing field, with many opportunities for dancers to shed light on the sophisticated ways dance affects and changes lives. Research in Dance offers new and insightful information for dance researchers at all stages of their learning and inquiry.

As the first of its kind, this text addresses topics often overlooked by other resources: * Arts-based research approaches, * Socially engaged research, * Interdisciplinary research methods, * Professional paths in dance research, * Grant writing for research support, * Dance researchers have many avenues to consider as they embark on sharing their discoveries. More than 50 academic journals and popular magazines focused on dance are available in print and online. There are many book publishers, stage producers, festivals, academic and professional conferences, and online platforms that also support dance research. Research in Dance explores philosophical frameworks and methodological approaches to assist the reader in the sharing of research.

Deliver high-quality, effective training programs to large groups. Program design for large groups of athletes is a daunting task, with far more factors to consider than in one-on-one training. Training Sport Teams: Principles, Strategies, and Programming for the Strength and Conditioning Professional offers practitioners’ invaluable guidance on the creation of training programs. While many resources discuss what practitioners do with their teams, the practical application of these approaches is often not provided. Each team has its own set of constraints that must be factored into the program design. Training Sport Teams provides explanations, tools, strategies, and programming frameworks that address the challenges posed by large-group training. Author Tim Caron brings technical concepts into a practical light, sharing his experiences as an assistant strength coach, head strength coach, and business owner. He describes the parameters programs should follow as well as the rules that help create an effective structure for training large groups of athletes. Team training, says Caron, should be bound by two basic principles: biomechanical rules through structural balance and physiological rules through periodized program design. Programs need to address progression, progressive overload, specificity, individuality, diminishing returns, and reversibility. While most strength and conditioning professionals know these key elements, scaling them up to work in a team setting takes special expertise.

In addition to serving as a foundational text for new researchers, it brings forward innovative concepts and strategies intended for those dance researchers already experienced in qualitative or arts-based inquiry. There are few resources that delve into the specific purposes, methods, and processes of research in dance.
