Many dance photographers work with dancers under the age of 18. Whether the photo sessions are part of a dance studio or custom, individual sessions, we believe dance photographers benefit from having education about how to recognize, prevent and respond to different types of abuse. We highly recommend theSafeSport® Trained Core course as a place to begin your education.
A comprehensive 90-minute overview of facts, principles, and strategies to help you provide safe and positive sport environments. Units include:

Sexual Misconduct Awareness and Education

Physical and Emotional Misconduct (including bullying, hazing, and harassment)
Federal law gives the nonprofit U.S. Center for SafeSport an important mandate: To end sexual, physical, and emotional abuse and misconduct in amateur sport. They pursue this goal by setting athlete safety policies and reinforcing abuse prevention and accountability across the Olympic and Paralympic Movement—encompassing over 11 million athletes and allies in more than 50 sports. They help parents, coaches, athletes, and more build better sport cultures in organizations across America that stir kids to move, compete, and thrive.
