List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
Elements Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance Criteria Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Develop a conditioning regime | 1.1 Discuss with relevant personnel the type of body conditioning program best suited to own dance performance needs 1.2 Apply understanding of anatomy, physiology and biomechanics to the development of a body conditioning regime 1.3 Incorporate fundamental nutritional principles into body conditioning regime 1.4 Include exercise programs and techniques in conditioning regime to promote physical strength, conditioning and wellbeing 1.5 Identify risk factors that may inhibit the achievement of goals and seek professional advice as required 1.6 Document the ongoing physical conditioning and exercise program to facilitate regular monitoring and adjustment of body conditioning regime |
2. Undertake conditioning exercise sessions | 2.1 Undertake and document pre-conditioning physical evaluation 2.2 Source music for warm-up and conditioning routines as required 2.3 Execute warm-up exercises to increase blood flow and circulation in a gradual manner 2.4 Work exercise routines to selected music as required 2.5 Apply disciplined work habits and commitment to the conditioning regime, ensuring that health and safety procedures are followed at all times 2.6 Undertake warm-down exercises to return respiration and heart rate to normal |
3. Incorporate behavioural techniques into conditioning regime | 3.1 Discuss with relevant personnel the physical effects of motivation on the human body 3.2 Incorporate mind and body education techniques into conditioning program 3.3 Enhance performance through basic visualisation and focus exercises |
4. Review conditioning regime | 4.1 Monitor and document vital signs and responses throughout exercise regime 4.2 Evaluate conditioning program to enhance injury-prevention strategies 4.3 Identify improvement strategies to enhance exercise regime as required |
Evidence of the ability to:
incorporate anatomical and behavioural principles into exercise routines
plan and evaluate a systematic physical conditioning plan
use techniques that promote health and wellbeing during conditioning programs
use appropriate posture and breathing techniques during exercise routines
exercise safely, taking account of responses of the human body to exercise.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided for each of the above points at least once.
To complete the unit requirements the individual must:
describe key features of the following in relation to a physical conditioning and exercise program:
human skeletal and muscular systems
cardiovascular and cardio-respiratory systems
resistance training
systems for measuring the effectiveness of exercise and fitness techniques
nutrition and diet
muscle memory
biofeedback theory
demonstrate knowledge of how the sciences of biomechanics, anatomy, physiology, and motor learning can be applied to human movement and performance.
Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to:
anatomy charts and diagrams
sufficient space, facilities and equipment appropriate for fitness and conditioning exercise
equipment and tools for monitoring and implementing exercise regimes, such as health-monitoring devices.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
