Dancing On The Globe

Program description

Students will learn how to use the basic elements of dance (Body, Energy, Space and Time) to communicate an environment and culture through non-verbal movements. They will look at the world in a new way, via the lens of dance in cultures from around the globe through original and learned choreography.

Dancing on the Globe will help students:

  •  Think globally and encourage cultural empathy.
  •  Choose how their body will represent the landscapes, objects, or characters needed to tell a story using dance.
  •  Learn dances from around the globe, such as, the Kakilambe from Guinea West Africa, Salsa from Cuba, and Bollywood from Mumbai.
