Concussion Policy
DanceSport Australia is committed to a fair and safe environment for all DanceSport members and participants. In so doing, DanceSport Australia works and cooperates with all Australian and State Government agencies to bring about that safe environment. Concussions can occur in daily activities as well as during any sport or recreational activities – including dance.
Concussions can have immediate and long-lasting effects on an individual. Therefore, all concussions are considered serious. It is essential that dancers, dance educators, dance coaches, parents, and healthcare providers learn the signs and symptoms of concussion and what to do if a concussion occurs.
