Prioritize your health and well-being! Join Dance Source Houston for our annual Day of Dancer Health on Thursday, December 3, 2026, at MATCH.Presented in partnership with Memorial Hermann Rockets Sports Medicine Institute, Day of Dancer Health connects local dance artists with healthcare professionals.
This FREE event offers Greater Houston dance artists ages 18 and older an opportunity to receive an individualized health screening, gain valuable insight into their overall health and movement practices, and connect with medical professionals.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Health screenings take approximately 60 minutes and include:
- Vital signs assessment
- Three-minute aerobic step test
- Range-of-motion and strength testing
- Dance-specific functional movement testing
- Review of health history and movement assessment with a Sports Medicine Primary Care Physician
Licensed sports dietitians will also be available throughout the day for one-on-one consultations.
PARTICIPANT STIPEND
We recognize that taking time away from work, arranging childcare, and navigating transportation can make attending healthcare appointments challenging. Participants who complete their health screening will receive a $50 stipend following the event to help offset these costs.
