Description of Workshop
InMotion Fundamentals of Creative Dance for Youth of All Abilities
AXIS offers an inspiring movement-based Creative Dance workshop for teachers interested in bringing movement to youth with and without disabilities. We will introduce the AXIS model of physically integrated dance and explore a philosophy, approach and specific creative dance exercises that encourage interaction between youth of all abilities where everyone participates as an equal.
The session introduces Creative Dance exercises and activities for use in the classroom as well as discussion about disability, language, and the development of AXIS' extraordinary inclusive community education program. Participants will have the opportunity to brainstorm, problem solve and adapt some of their own favorite exercises and lesson plans. Come dressed to move!
