O grupo é oriundo de um projeto de extensão, desta universidade. Como recorte, utilizouse o período de 1993 a 2016 e a cidade de Pelotas-RS. A pesquisa está amparada nos pressupostos teóricos metodológicos da História Oral, realizada a partir do cruzamento de fontes orais, scritas e imagéticas. Além de uma série de informações e curiosidades históricas locais, a pesquisa nos mostrou que Pelotas foi palco de uma experiência de dança universitária de maior tempo de trabalho ininterrupto de dança universitária performática. Além disso, foi possível perceber que a dança universitária é um espaço propenso ao processo de reflexividade do campo do conhecimento, ao mesmo tempo, que é um espaço de multiplicidade de arte e produção do estético. / This study aims to reconstruct the dance memories of the University Group, of the Physical Education School at the Federal University of Pelotas - GRUD, seeking to unravel the stories, experiences, memories and events, bring them up, loaded with feelings and meanings within a historical, social and cultural context. The group is from an extension project, this university. As a crop, used the period 1993-2016 and the city of Pelotas. The research is supported by the theoretical and methodological assumptions of Oral History, held from crossing from oral sources, written and imagistic. In addition to a number of local information and historical curiosities, research has shown that Pelotas was the scene of a experience of university dance longest uninterrupted working time performative university dance. In addition, it was revealed that the university dance is an area prone to the process of reflexivity of the knowledge field at the same time, which is a space of multiplicity of art and aesthetic production.

The subject of dance and injury has become an increasingly important area of study for sports medicine, education, and dance studies. However, the majority of current research focuses on professional dancers or pre-professional dancers in a conservatory training context. The research typically overlooks dancers in a university setting who pursue baccalaureate-level dance programs. This small-scale research study therefore focuses on collegiate dancers in their first year of study in a liberal arts dance program. As this population often sustains injuries, the thesis project seeks to examine the management of injury strategies and to create injury prevention guidelines for the liberal arts dance department, its dance classes, and a hypothetical syllabus for a first-year injury prevention course. The research methodology adopts three approaches: a survey of the incoming freshman dance class at Temple University; a detailed study of six previously or currently injured dance students through interview; and a critical assessment of the research on dance injury. The injury prevention guidelines developed from the student injury surveys, interviews, and assessments will focus on basic, yet essential, information regarding injury management and misconceptions, and the guidelines will prepare collegiate-level dancers for future injury challenges they may face. / Dance
