DANCE INTEGRATION

"It's been my experience that total engagement can make

learning deep and memorable." -Ms. Clark



"I partner with schools to provide one of a kind dance-in-education services because I'm committed to the role that the arts play in the education of the whole child.


Dance education promotes personal growth and community understanding by enabling students to process and create meaning from what they learn about people, events, and places.

​

Educationally, the arts have a place in the classroom not only for their own sake, but also as rich, relevant and integral connections to classroom work that support as well as align with and enliven core curriculum."


-Ms. Clark



TEACHING & CULTURAL EXPRESSION



Get connected to the power of the arts through our Dance Making Residency Programs.


Let us design an original dance making unit of study that weaves dance into the curriculum addressing NYS Learning Standards to achieve educational and behavioral goals.


All residencies are designed to enhance classroom learning by integrating dance into a variety of school and human service settings. From classroom to after school programs, day care centers to shelters, dance will make a tremendous difference.


KMD will provide you with the technical assistance and integrate a dance program at your school or site.


Become a partner today and experience the difference dance will make in your students and staff.



A Teaching Artist is a practicing professional artist with the complementary skills and sensibilities of an educator, who engages people in learning experiences in, through, and about the arts."
