In today’s classroom, educators are asked to cover so many things. From academic subjects, social-emotional learning, DPA, CRRP, the list goes on. It’s a lot to ask of one person, and now you’ve got dance thrown in the mix.
While dance can be extremely impactful on students’ ability to use creative expression and community building skills, you might feel uncomfortable leading this kind of exploration.
What’s more, the dance curriculum asks that students be exposed to different cultural dance forms and you’re not sure how to navigate the world of appropriation vs. appreciation.
Wouldn’t it be nice if an expert could give you the tools to include dance and diversity in the classroom?
“A great resource that made my life so much easier teaching dance in the public school system. I'm not a formal dance teacher but wanted to bring in cultural diversity to my dance classes and Dance ‘N’ Culture more than lived up to that promise! Thank you!” - Sandra Enns, Teacher
