The Impact of COVID-19 on Competitive Dancers and Their Families

We are currently recruiting dancer-parent pairs to participate in our current study exploring the impact of the COVID-19 on Canadian competitive dancers and their families. 

Participating dancers and parents will be asked to complete 3 online surveys over the next year. Dancers will also have the choice to participate in on online interview at each of the 3 time points.

To participate, dancers must be 12 to 18 years of age and have a parent who is also willing to complete a survey. Dancers under the age of 18 must have parental consent to participate. Space is limited to 150 dancer-parent pairs.

Topics that may be in the survey include:

  • The impact of COVID-19
  • Dance experiences
  • Perfectionism
  • Personality
  • Body image
  • Stress
  • Physical Activity

For each completed survey and interview, participants will be compensated with a $15 CAN Amazon gift card for the first two time points and $20 CAN for the third time point!
