Sport Psych in Performing Arts (Cirque du Soleil)
Ian Connole   para SPORTPSY
Hi Sport Psych and Friends,

I thought this article had interesting insight into the mental performance of an athlete turned Cirque du Soleil performer:
http://www.mgoblue.com/sports/m-gym/spec-rel/081110aaa.html

"The biggest difference is you know how to get up for the NCAAs and Big Tens, but Cirque is different because you have to be at a peak performance 10 shows per week, 300 shows per year. You can’t have an off-night, because that may be the only night somebody comes to see the show. It requires a different type of sports psychology, and they’re working with us on that.
All the best,

Ian

Vale a pena ler isso:

SHRIER, I et al. Injury patterns and injury rates in the circus arts: an analysis of 5 years of data from Cirque du Soleil. Am J Sports Med. 2009 Jun;37(6):1143-9.
