Brief description of the seminar, which took place as part of the Talent Scouting Days in March 2024

How much pressure is too much?

The joy of dancing should be at the centre of young people's lives, but such exam situations are also associated with a certain amount of pressure. A mindful approach to pressure is necessary in every dance career - the focus is on the well-being of young people. The balancing act between under- and overstraining demands a great deal of reflection from everyone: Parents and teachers. Careful interaction helps to recognise and intercept signs of excessive demands at an early stage. Dealing with pressure also requires realistic and transparent goals, but also increasing self-determination on the part of the young people themselves. How can a healthy approach to pressure to perform be supported? How can the right balance be maintained? Today is an opportunity to think about this. After a brief introduction to Swiss Olympic's Ethics Compass, the event will focus on dialogue.
