Dance teachers often instruct without having any formal education in dance teaching pedagogy or best practices. They may be experienced and talented in dance technique, but widespread teaching practices tend to depend on the transmission of knowledge from teacher-to-student, rather than practices grounded in pedagogical theory (Sims & Erwin, 2012). Research conducted by Hilsendager (2001), Posey (2002), Cohen (2002) and others reveals that dance education has evolved into a practice where dance teachers often instruct with any knowledge of pedagogy beyond their own experiences in learning and performing dance. Dance students are put at risk for injury from dance teachers who practice instruction of incorrect technique and lack in effective teaching and learning strategies (Papaefstathiou, Rhind, & Brackenridge, 2013; Zeller, 2017). The purpose of this case study was to explore Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) as a form of professional development and its influence on ballet teachers' pedagogy and practice. PBT was created to instruct teachers how to increase muscle memory, improve flexibility, strengthen technique, and increase longevity in dance through safe and effective exercises. The participants of this study included teachers who were certified in the PBT program in the United States in 2018. Data collection included field notes from the researcher participant observer experiences, email interview responses, and survey responses. Analysis of this data found that PBT influenced participants' pedagogy and practice in the following areas: implementation of PBT exercises and teaching strategies, engagement of specific muscles groups, and positive instruction to and feedback from students. This finding should encourage the dance community to pursue further creation of dance education professional development that is offered in short-term workshops or seminars. Those who are considering creating short-term professional development should proceed and evaluate those experiences in order to contribute to the evidence supporting the ability of professional development to influence its participants.
