Unit of Competency CUAWHS301 - Condition the body for dance performance
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to optimise physical wellbeing and safely perform a range of body conditioning exercises and movements to support dance performance. Physical conditioning exercise programs could be undertaken in dance or fitness studios, or gyms.Work performed requires a range of well-developed skills where some discretion and judgement are required and individuals are expected to take responsibility for their own outputs.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to:

anatomy charts and diagrams

sufficient space, facilities and equipment appropriate for fitness and conditioning exercise

equipment and tools for monitoring and implementing exercise regimes, such as health-monitoring devices.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.

resistance training

systems for measuring the effectiveness of exercise and fitness techniques

nutrition and diet

muscle memory

biofeedback theory

demonstrate knowledge of how the sciences of biomechanics, anatomy, physiology, and motor learning can be applied to human movement and performance.
