In part two of our injury series, we look at injury through connected angles: how company culture is shifting, the perspectives of those who care for dancers’ bodies, and the ways injuries can open the door to unexpected new chapters.
You’ll hear from dancers and practitioners across the ballet world:
Julie Kent on the emotional reality of injury at the highest level of the art form, and how her experiences now inform the way she nurtures dancers in her leadership roles.
Harrison Coll (soloist, New York City Ballet) on how company culture around rest, recovery and ambition is finally changing.
Zimmi Coker (American Ballet Theatre) on navigating a major injury with support, building a “toolbox” for her body, and redefining sustainability on and offstage.
Maria Kowroski (Artistic Director, New Jersey Ballet) on how her own injuries deepened her artistry and now shape how she supports dancers from the other side of the studio.
Cameron Gomez, Dr. David Williams & Caroline Krumm on the science of overuse, stress fractures, tendinopathy and periodisation, and why sleep and rest are non-negotiable training tools.
Miko Fogarty on the injury that quietly planted the seed for her pivot from international ballet star to foot and ankle surgery resident and how she now helps dancers protect the careers she once dreamed of.
Saskia and Indiana also share their own stories: the messy middle of long-term injury, comments that cut deep, and the unexpected gifts that appear when dance is no longer the only definition of who you are.
This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt left behind by their body, stood on the edge of “Is this over?” or wondered what might exist on the other side of an interrupted dream. It’s about culture, care, and the surprising possibilities that open when you start listening to your body and to yourself.
