The timing of maturation has implications for physical and psychological outcomes which are likely to be amplified in dance. The aim of this research was to explore the role of maturity timing in adolescent dance students' experiences of vocational ballet training.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Semi\u2010structured interviews were carried out with 28 adolescent female dancers of differing maturity timing across three vocational ballet schools in the UK. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was employed in the analysis of data. This study comprises findings from the nine late maturing dancers within the sample.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Late maturing dancers perceived a number of aesthetic and functional advantages. The aesthetic advantages noted by the dancers are congruent with the well\u2010established bias toward a later maturing physique for ballet; being \u2018small\u2019 and not having \u2018bits\u2019 is advantageous for these dancers in terms of maintaining a more pre\u2010pubescent look and thereby conforming more easily to the expectations of the ballet world. However, dancers in this study perceived some significant drawbacks. Despite aesthetic advantages, later maturing dancers were disadvantaged by the current training system which sees them undertaking the most crucial training period during their most rapid period of growth.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Greater consideration of maturation is needed within training systems and further research is warranted to understand these experiences in more depth and their implications for the physical and psychological wellbeing of young people in dance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.adolescence.2020.03.005","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,21]],"date-time":"2020-03-21T23:44:08Z","timestamp":1584834248000},"page":"233-241","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/elsevier_cm_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Experiences of delayed maturation in female vocational ballet students: An interpretative phenomenological analysis"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"80","author":[{"given":"Siobhan B.","family":"Mitchell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department for Health University of Bath Claverton Down Bath BA2 7AY United Kingdom"},{"name":"Child Mental Health Group University of Exeter Medical School South Cloisters, St. Luke's Campus, Heavitree Road Exeter EX1 2LU UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne M.","family":"Haase","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Victoria University of Wellington Kelburn Wellington 6012 New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sean P.","family":"Cumming","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department for Health University of Bath Claverton Down Bath BA2 7AY United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S2359\u20133482(15)30037\u20133"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jadohealth.2012.02.013"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.adolescence.2005.10.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","volume-title":"Growth, maturation and injury patterns of Australian elite adolescent ballet dancers.
