Integrating the science of sport and the performing arts for the mutual benefit of both. Athletes and the Arts is an initiative focused on linking the sport athlete and musician/performing artist communities through collaborative exchange and application of wellness, training and performance research and initiatives.
Unique to Athletes and the Arts is our collection of one page educational fact sheets, devoted to helping and guiding performing artists, music teachers and other educators, medical professionals, and all those instrumental in the well-being and care of any performing artist.
Visitors are encouraged to share the link to our collection or to any specific fact sheet’s post, or print or email the PDF itself (do not, however, distribute any PDF/fact sheet on a different website or publication without our prior approval).
View our collection of “1 Page Fact Sheets”.
We have a very compelling issue that needs attention at all levels. Your grass roots efforts in helping to promote the Athletes and the Arts (AATA) initiative can build momentum, fulfill a social need and help an underserved population.
