Teaching styles and reducing stress and anxiety in the arts.

[Wellness Steph]

Hi to all.

 

I came to learn about Ballet Forum lately as a place to get insight and feedback relating to your young people/children and their experience in attending Ballet School across the UK and Europe.

 

I am particularly interested in the subject of stress, anxiety and hows this is managed through teaching and teaching methods.

 

If you are a parent or teacher involved / connected to the arts, i would appreciate your views on this topic.

 

Thanks for your time.

Hello Stephanie and welcome to the forum.  May I ask if you represent a business or school, or are you conducting research for academic purposes?

 

Many thanks,

 

Anna

Hi Anna, it's business related research.  I run my own business which is a wellness based company.  How does this sit with you?

Thanks for your message.

Hi Steph, thanks so much for your prompt clarification. ☺️ It’s fine, providing your posts are in line with our Forum rules on Commerce and Research:

 

Commerce 

 

There is no bar to people representing commercial ventures from signing up to BalletcoForum with a view to spreading information about their wares or offering relevant services.

That said, we are not an advertising hoarding and repeated postings of the same or similar information will not be tolerated, nor frivolous posts which merely seem designed to get the company name ‘up there’. Nor will we allow vendors to use BalletcoForum as their shopfront: if you have a selling business you should use your own website for trade and market testing, not this one.

Members who have commercial interests must indicate that by adding a Signature line to their postings, stating the name and type of their business and giving their website and/or business email address for enquiries. Signatures are best displayed as text but small graphic logos are permissible. (Set up a Signature via Account Settings in the dropdown menu under your name.) If members wish to contact businesses, associate schemes or other commercial enterprises this should be done via the vendor’s website or email, not by starting threads on the forum. Sending promotional ‘mailshot’ messages to other users is not allowed.

 

...and:

 

Contacting members for research 

 

We have a large constituency of dancers on the Forum so people may come here to find guinea pigs for their academic research. It is best that people seeking subjects should go through the dance schools so that bona fides can be checked, rather than soliciting help here.

Nonetheless, should you wish to post here, be aware that to take account of concerns about exploitation, particularly of children, we will remove postings unless it is made clear that it is over-18s who are being canvassed. If thinking of replying you should realise that we have no way of checking posters’ credentials and therefore advise caution before responding.

If you could add your business details into your Signature as described above, that would be great.

 

Many thanks!

 

Anna
