  • Consider how each component can be met in a dance company rehearsal.  What is the dancers' responsibility? What is the choreographers' responsibility? What factors effect motivation?
  • What motivates you in rehearsal?
  • How does the Hierarchy of Needs support your understanding of how you work or could work in a rehearsal for Dance Company alongside how people are motivated?
  • Reflect on the extent to which you are meeting your needs at present. How motivated are you? Give examples.

The PERMA model (Seligman, 2012 cited in Urmston, 2021 - see below) identifies five dimensions that make up positive well being from a positive psychology perspective.  Urmston (2021) applies them to the dance context:
  • Positive emotion 
  • Engagement 
  • Relationships
  • Meaning
  • Achievement
Watch the video below and read Urmston's blog here: http://www.safeindance.com/cultivating-self-care-full-length/ and consider how knowledge of the PERAMA model can support an effective working relationship with your company and how you can use it to support your training.  How can you put the PERMA model in to action?
