Abstract
In addition to the annual dance steps teaching plan, a training plan designed for the dancer to reach the main presentation's peak performance is required. This training plan is called periodisation and seems to be a great tool for optimizing performance and avoiding overtraining. This chapter addresses the concepts of periodization translated by sport and association with the conditions found in dance. The manipulation of the volume and intensity of the dancer's integral training will be at the heart of the periodisation proposed in this chapter. The division of phases of a company's season or a year in the dance school will be analysed. The different phases aim to prepare the dancer's body for this activity's demands, improving and maintaining one performance, health, and quality of life.
