kick main studies consist of ball velocitykick main studies consist of ball velocity– Dance kicks study height of kick, line of the leg Dance kicks study height of kick, line of the leg

• Dancer vs. Non-Dancer (Study)Dancer vs. Non-Dancer (Study)– Large difference is balanceLarge difference is balance– Non-dancer used more lateral flexion of the Non-dancer used more lateral flexion of the
trunk to maintain balancetrunk to maintain balance– Dancer compensates with less abduction of the Dancer compensates with less abduction of the
hip joint (not lifting her leg as high keeps trunk hip joint (not lifting her leg as high keeps trunk more balanced)more balanced)

– Our results show more Our results show more adduction at the top of non-adduction at the top of non-dancersdancers
– Dancer shows more Dancer shows more abduction from the toe-off to abduction from the toe-off to the top the top
– Research by Bryzik et al. () Research by Bryzik et al. () contradicts this by saying contradicts this by saying the non-dancer will display the non-dancer will display more abducter motion in more abducter motion in order to lift the leg higherorder to lift the leg higher
AlleggroAlleggro• Straight Leg KicksStraight Leg Kicks
– Top of extension, dancer’s leg Top of extension, dancer’s leg displays more extension of the displays more extension of the hip than non-dancerhip than non-dancer
– Eccentric power of hip much Eccentric power of hip much larger just before reaching the larger just before reaching the top of dancer’s kicktop of dancer’s kick
– Concentric power used to bring Concentric power used to bring the leg back down, unseen in the leg back down, unseen in non-dancernon-dancer
• Non-dancer up on toes during Non-dancer up on toes during kicks, not properkicks, not proper

– Fluidity, lack in the non-dancer, very choppy when the Fluidity, lack in the non-dancer, very choppy when the leg is ascending leg is ascending
– Dancer displays more concentric power just prior to Dancer displays more concentric power just prior to reaching top of kick, non-dancer only displays a slight reaching top of kick, non-dancer only displays a slight burstburst
– Flexors display clean moment before, through and after Flexors display clean moment before, through and after the top of the kick (shorter in non-dancer)the top of the kick (shorter in non-dancer)
– Slight extensor moment at the beginning of non-Slight extensor moment at the beginning of non-dancer’s kick, dancer finished with an extensor momentdancer’s kick, dancer finished with an extensor moment

• Muscle Usage:Muscle Usage:– Between all three kicks, apparent of the different uses of Between all three kicks, apparent of the different uses of
the muscles by the dancer and non-dancerthe muscles by the dancer and non-dancer– The training for the dancer, teaches them to use their The training for the dancer, teaches them to use their
muscles in moe efficient waysmuscles in moe efficient ways– In research by Bryzik et al. () it was stated that the non-In research by Bryzik et al. () it was stated that the non-
dancer and dancer had similar adduction angles, which dancer and dancer had similar adduction angles, which was similar to our subjects, their adduction moments was similar to our subjects, their adduction moments were very similarwere very similar
– Benefits – injury preventionBenefits – injury prevention
The DanceThe Dance• Comparing the dancer Comparing the dancer
from the non-dancer, from the non-dancer, apparent to see the apparent to see the difference in muscles used difference in muscles used during certain periods of during certain periods of the kicksthe kicks
• Also the fluidity of the Also the fluidity of the motion of the dancer is motion of the dancer is much smoothermuch smoother
• Answer to Question:Answer to Question:– No, because of the dancer`s No, because of the dancer`s
