Membership

Membership

ASPAH is reaching out to everyone with an interest or involvement in the performing arts. This means that, as we grow, membership of ASPAH will bring you in contact with a broad range of people; actors, administrators, Alexander teachers, chiropractors, choreographers, conductors, dancers, doctors, complementary therapists, musicians, nurses, physiotherapists, singers, teachers, trainers, and hopefully hundreds of other people who not only love the arts but also believe that an artist can be only as good as their health allows.

ASPAH is a new organisation but as it matures other benefits will be:

Access to a comprehensive directory of members and a chance to collaborate with those members to achieve real change in the field of performing arts healthcare.
A regular newsletter which will not only keep you in touch with the organisation but will also keep you abreast of a range of contemporary performing arts health issues and resources.
Subsidised and/or preferential access to forums, symposia and educational sessions covering a broad range of performing arts health issues.
Advocacy for your health and well being, with our resources there to respond to and voice your concerns to people who matter in the world of the performing arts.
Association with a society which we hope, through its actions and its integrity, will lend credibility to anyone who is accepted as a member.

Joining now offers a chance to be a part of something very new and exciting in the Australian arts landscape. It may even offer you the chance of making a personal contribution to changing for the better the life of all artists in Australia.

Fees

At this stage we are trying to make membership as accessible as possible to as many as possible by having a tiered system of fees. These are:

Registered professionals ..........................................................................................................................$120
Non registered health professionals, artists, educators and researchers ..................................$60
Full time students .........................................................................................................................................$30

However, for the 2007/2008 financial year new membership will be available for only 50% of the standard rate!

Memberships will run from October 1st of each year, with initial memberships extending for up to 18 months to bring them in line with our membership year

So come on... Lend us your support and be a part of something special.
