A new SPRINT Project publication led by PhD researcher Michelle Schachtler Dwarika explores how mental skills training can help freelance dance artists manage career challenges, support wellbeing, and develop skills that extend beyond dance.

Mental skills aren’t just for elite performers, they’re for everyone navigating pressure, recovery, learning, or leadership. At The SPRINT Project, we’ve curated a rich collection of blogs, toolkits, and academic resources to help you explore mental skills like goal-setting, imagery, emotional regulation, and resilience. This interactive hub offers practical tools and reflective insights to support wellbeing and inclusive practice.
