Niall MacSweeney discusses how growth and maturation affects performance, and the impact of adolescent maturation on injury risk in elite pre-professional ballet. We talk about the student-focused approach to this at the Royal Ballet School, including profiling, the use of biological age, training adaptations and student/teacher education. Niall reflects on some of the challenges in tracking growth and maturation, the highlights and key findings in the research so far, as well as areas for possible development with future research. We also look at potential practical applications in translation of this work to other dance settings.
