Elena Conesa Ros

Elena Conesa Ros serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physical Activity and Sport at the Faculty of Sports Sciences, Universidad de Murcia, specializing in the Didactics of Body Expression within sports pedagogy and biomechanics.

Her academic credentials include:

• PhD from Universidad de Murcia (2015) with thesis "Valoración de la movilidad de la columna en el plano sagital y extensibilidad de la musculatura isquiosural en gimnasia estética de grupo" (Assessment of spinal mobility in the sagittal plane and hamstring muscle extensibility in group aesthetic gymnastics)
• Supervised by Dr. Antonio Pastor Clemente, Dr. Fernando Santonja Medina, and Dr. Francisca María Martínez Gallego

Her research integrates biomechanical analysis with sports pedagogy, focusing on spinal mobility and hamstring flexibility in aesthetic gymnastics. She examines how physical constraints affect performance in group rhythmic gymnastics, contributing to injury prevention methodologies and movement education frameworks. Her work bridges theoretical sports science with practical coaching applications in body expression disciplines.
