Most common dancing injuries reported include:
• Ankle sprain: from toppling over
• Knee injury: caused by sudden twisting movements on hard surfaces
• Lower back pain strain: on the back from very controlled movements and lifts
• Foot strain: especially among women dancing in high-heeled shoes
• Hamstring injury: quick changes of direction take their toll
• Quadriceps: the repeated lifts of the leg can cause strain
• Shoulders: twisting and turning as well as keeping hands above shoulder height can cause strain
