Lifelong Dance	This study examines the motivators and stressors that dancers experience when taking dance class. The aim is to gain a better understanding of lifelong dancers by exploring the relationship between dance training and what motivates or stresses dancers as they continue to pursue dance either for fun, competition, or a career. The following anonymous survey, which should take approximately 20 minutes to complete, asks questions about dancer’s experience with training. There are also some demographic questions. To qualify for this study, dancers must be located in the US, be at least 7 years of age, and have taken dance classes or currently involved in dance. This study is voluntary, and participation is anonymous . Those under 18 years of age must also have parental permission and consent. The survey will prompt for this consent.	12/31/2026	Sam Houston State University	Emily Weber: eew019@shsu.edu Link to Survey
