Texas Tech University Associate Professor of Dance, Dr. Ali Duffy seeks participants in a research project about women’s negotiations of their careers in dance with pregnancy and/or motherhood. Participation in this study consists of an online survey which will take approximately 20 minutes to complete, and a virtual (video conference or phone) 60-90 minute follow-up interview. Interview questions focus on the participants’ experiences in their careers in dance relevant to their experiences with pregnancy and/or motherhood. Participants’ names and contact information will be kept confidential and no names will be used in published or presented materials. The results of this research will be published in the forthcoming book, Dancing Motherhood: Contexts and Perspectives from Working Mothers in Dance, under contract with Routledge. To participate, individuals must: be over the age of 18, have experienced pregnancy and/or motherhood in any form (through pregnancy, surrogacy, adoption, etc.), and have held at least one job in the dance field during pregnancy and/or motherhood. Please participate by clicking on the survey link below. Please contact Dr. Ali Duffy ([email protected]) with any questions. This study has been approved by the Human Research Protection Program Institutional Review Board at Texas Tech University.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/DancingMotherhood With the rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic closing borders, restricting travel and limiting large in-person events, Healthy Dancer Canada has made the difficult but responsible decision to cancel the Annual Conference which was set to take place in Vancouver August 28 - 30, 2020. Although this decision was not made lightly, it was made with the best interest of our members and community in mind. At a time when the world needs arts and culture more than ever, we look forward to supporting our community in different ways in the coming months, and welcoming you to our Annual Conference again in 2021.
