Sprung Floors for Performance will Protect Dancers from Injury
Step into an educational facility with performing arts and sports programs and chances are you will see dancers using the same floor as athletes. It’s a common assumption that a well-designed sports floor is also suitable for performing arts. The reality is that the requirements of dancers and athletes differ drastically.
Dancers require traction from the floor to prevent slips, whereas too much traction for a basketball player can result in a twisted knee or ankle. Selection of the appropriate sprung floor system is key to preventing injuries.
Harlequin Floors works closely with industry experts to provide sprung floors developed with artistic performance in mind. Through all stages of product development the focus is on protecting dancers from injury, reducing slips and falls, and instilling confidence in performers at all levels.
When it comes to sprung floors, Harlequin offers solutions specifically designed for dance and stage. WoodSpring® and Activity® are permanent options installed by professional Harlequin installers. Liberty LatchLoc™ is a portable panel system, which is quick and easy to install. Our newest sprung floor product, Flexity Plus™, is a cost-effective, self-install panel system designed for permanent or semi-permanent installation. After installing a sprung floor the project is completed with the appropriate performance surface. Harlequin has a range of vinyl marley surfaces ideal for everything from tap to ballet, musical theater, or multipurpose use.
