sprung floor
Gymnast's resilient platform
A sprung floor is a floor constructed to absorb shock and return energy, used in dance studios, gymnasiums, and performance spaces.
The design—typically wooden boards over a cushioned or flexible substructure—reduces impact on joints and prevents injuries during jumping, landing, and athletic movement.
The ballet company insisted on a sprung floor for rehearsals.
