| Sumario: | Flamenco dancing is a high-risk profession of elevated risk of injury due, among other factors, to high stress demands and vibrations derived from the damage caused by footwork step. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of the antecedents of pain and the consequences of injuries in flamenco dance student from Professional Dance Conservatory. The sample analyzed consists of 75 students of Professional Dance Conservatories of Andalusia (17.4 ± 4.4 years of age). A direct interview was applied based on dichotomous questions about antecedents of pain and injuries in 7 joint regions: feet, ankles, knees, hips, lumbar spine, cervical spine and shoulders. Unlike other percussive dances, participants showed a higher incidence of functional disorders and injuries in knees, lumbar and cervical spine.
