She has a beautiful blend of Dance Experience, Academia and Entrepreneurialism and we cover it all. From the struggle of placing Dance as both a Sport and an Art, to to Performance Psychology, to Dance Program Development - Sarah shares her thoughts and experiences over the years.    Sarah Calvert studied Contemporary Dance at Simon Fraser University and where she also received a second Bachelors degree in Education. She then graduated from the University of Victoria with a Masters Degree in Coaching Studies. During these studies she engaged in analytical and tactical research in Skill Acquisition, Motor Development and Performance Psychology as it applies to dance teaching when regarding “dance as sport.” It was during this time that the IDTS program was further developed to include subject topics such as Team Cohesion, Competitive Dance Issues and Biomechanics.
