Abstract	Martha Grahm reputedly said, “a dancer is an ‘athlete of God’” (Theys, 2010). Yet dance and exercise and sport science (herein referred to as exercise science) are often viewed as unique entities, sometimes dividedly so. Our contention is that dance and exercise science mutually benefit when the two disciplines are interconnected. In this paper we advance our position, providing theoretical, historical, and contemporary practical examples of how each can benefit by recognizing their similarities versus focusing on their differences. An analogy based on the mathematically derived Möbius strip is used to illustrate the value of our approach.
