Students and parents need to be aware that dance teachers correcting all types of dance technique will at times need to touch students, so they understand the proper alignment, placement of arms, head, feet, ankles, legs, back and stomach. This will help students to understand the proper muscles they should be using for dance. I agree that good dance training involves touching and adjusting of the student's body by the instructor. The face, neck and head may need to be gently turned; the shoulders, arms, elbows, wrists and fingers may need to be adjusted for proper alignment; the hips, thighs, knees, ankles and feet are very important for proper alignment and injury prevention. These positions may need to be turned or lightly moved for correction. I agree to this practice and UCLA Dance Academy, UCLA Dance Academy Instructors, or the class venue shall not be held liable in any way for injuries sustained during attendance at UCLA Dance Academy.
