Hosting a Family Folk Dance

Saturday, January 25, 2025
10:00 AM - 10:45 AM

Description
Dance is such a powerful tool in our classrooms and beyond. It has the ability to connect groups of strangers- and create community among our school and our parents. This session will show how I have hosted Family Folk Dance nights at my school and worked to create a musical community beyond my classroom- that involves adults getting up and dancing themselves!
