HvA ATD Research Convenant

The Hogeschool van Amsterdam (HvA) and the Academy of Theater and Dance (ATD) have been engaged with a research collaboration since 2011. At the request of the Domain Health department Physiotherapy, a number of ATD dance students took part in a hypermobility study entitled: "Hypermobility among dancers: A blessing or a curse?" With this research as a starting point, an extensive functional screening has been developed for all 1st and 2nd year dance students of the ATD that gives them insight into their own physical possibilities. This screening started in 2015 as a PhD research by Janneke de Vries of the Physiotherapy.
Below is the announcement of “Festive seal of collaboration between HvA and AHK through signing covenant.”
