Everyday We Write a Dance*

Since ancient times, humans have passed on their cultural values and history through dance. This residency explores, through dance, how the fabric of everyday life becomes part of a community’s tradition. Based on a Native American story (Beardream by Will Hobbs), students use creative and critical thinking skills to combine elements of the story as they create their own community dance. Literacy, reading and connections to literature are important aspects of this residency. After two workshops, students will have a greater awareness of the creative process, how powerful movement is in communication and the role of dance within a community.

Grades: K-5
Single: $295
Residency: two 45-minute sessions
