Topic: Hip Anatomy & Function

When: Saturday, July 25, 2026 at 11:30 AM EST

Format: IN PERSON

Description: Our seventh Saturday Series workshop of 2026, Hip Anatomy & Function, will be led by Harkness Center Program Manager of athletic training Lauren McIntyre, LAT, ATC.

For dancers, large ranges of motion and other unique demands may cause significant stress on the joints. In this in-person workshop, we will review the anatomy of the hip joint and explore its function throughout the lifespan of the dancer. Participants will learn key exercises for nourishing and restoring the hips as well as understanding the hips’ connection to other areas of our body, including the spine and lower limbs. Dancers of all ages, levels, and genres will come away with strategies for promoting healthy hip joints.
