Do dancers stay healthier longer or have injuries from years of dancing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes twice: Most of the dancers are healthy they seem to me very flexible and usually are fit their cardiovascular levels are normally good but most of them sustain degenerative injuries typically involving the hips and knees from all the pounding.
