FOR the first time in its history, the International Association for Dance Medicine & Science (IADMS) will hold its 22nd annual conference in Asia from Oct 25-27.

Meeting activities and sessions will be held at the Novotel Singapore Clarke Quay on the Singapore River. This three-day conference is directed at those involved in the healthcare, education, administration and supervision of dancers, including physicians, physical therapists, allied health professionals, alternative healthcare practitioners, psychologists, arts administrators, artistic directors, choreographers, educators, scientists, movement specialists, and dancers.

The event provides an interesting mixture of medical symposia on issues affecting dancers, dance and pedagogical research, movement sessions by somatic practitioners and dance instructors.

There will also be a special programme on Oct 28 called A Day For Teachers (SIG Day). You may register to attend SIG Day even if you do not attend the conference.

A Day For Teachers, Approaches To Wellness For Dancers, will explore the psychological and physical essentials of disciplines that dancers use to complement dance technique class.

Numerous social and cultural events will also be available to participants, including a contemporary dance performance by Malaysian dancer/choreographer Mavin Khoo, guided tours of the city and a gala party focusing on the Asian arts renaissance.

These activities are jointly sponsored by IADMS in collaboration with Paradigm Wellness Pte Ltd.

Khoos choreography entitled Akasha will take place on Oct 25 at 8pm. The piece explores the notion of aether as signified through the pluralism of its possibilities: air, spirit and energy.

Performing under a circle of light, the five performers, including Khoo, are between worlds, and explore the concepts of mortality and immortality.

The show will take place at Drama Theatre, School of the Arts, 1, Zubir Said Drive, Singapore. Tickets are priced at RM145 and RM195.

Age management medicine believes that by following a plan of health strategies and lifestyle changes, you can achieve the goal of optimising your healthspan.

WE used to talk about staying young forever, but now we know that this is a pipe dream, even with the most sophisticated medical advances.

Instead, people have come to accept that they will inevitably grow older. But ageing does not have to mean that your health will deteriorate, or that you will become physically weaker. It does not mean you have to be hunched and wrinkly, or depressed and ill all the time.

Instead, you can delay these effects by managing the ageing process well. Some centres are now talking about age management medicine, or anti-ageing medicine, or advanced preventive and regenerative medicine, which is a new specialty that looks at preventing the medical effects of ageing by treating diseases, conditions and risk factors, as early as the age of 30 years.

Age management medicine believes that by following a plan of health strategies and lifestyle changes, you can decrease these risk factors and eventually achieve the goal of optimising your healthspan (staying healthy for as long as possible) and avoiding diseases.

Age is just a number

Recent medical approaches to ageing are becoming increasingly radical, and the possibilities are exciting.

Underscoring these approaches are a completely new understanding about the process of ageing.

When science replaced myth and magic, we no longer believed in immortality or turning back the hands of time. But we started looking into what happens in the body when we get older.

When we discovered the presence of degeneration in our cells, we assumed that this was a natural process that occured as the years passed by, as if there was a switch that suddenly turned on once we hit the age of 50.
