Dance Benefits:
What are the benefits of encouraging artistic stimulation and creativity through dance and movement from a young age?
Can dance benefit a child’s education?
How can dance benefit you at any age? (social skills, self-expression, enhance rhythm and timing, improve co-ordination, balance, and flexibility, develops memory.)
Life after performing:
What can be done to help the transition between being a dancer and your next career step?
As performers what transferrable skills do we have that would make this transition easier, and what factors would hinder our progress?
Hi Cerys,
ReplyDeleteI am also interested in the effects of dance on a child's education. I work as dance teacher at a performing arts academy and in a mainstream academic school. Its interesting to watch the different dynamics in each environment and the effect of introducing dance and drama in a mainstream school. Looking forward to forming SIG's and discussing this in more detail.
