Can being too flexible actually increase your risk of injury?

Many dancers are praised for their flexibility, but hypermobility isn't always an advantage. In this episode of the Ballet Science Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Linda Bluestein, physician, former ballet dancer, and internationally recognized expert in hypermobility disorders, to discuss what every dancer, teacher, and parent should know about hypermobility and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS).

Whether you're a professional dancer, pre-professional student, adult ballet dancer, teacher, healthcare provider, or parent, this episode offers practical, evidence-informed advice for training smarter and dancing longer.
