Join us at NYSDEA's 2024 NYSDEA Winter Conference: Perspectives
February 3, 2024
Hunter College, Dance Department
Dance, like all art forms, is subjective. Our lived experiences, backgrounds, and personal beliefs all converge to create our perspectives. As educators, it is crucial to acknowledge our perspectives, unpack our biases, and make a conscious effort to teach and share dance from multiple perspectives in order to give students, audiences, and communities a full understanding of what dance is and can look like. Dance provides a platform for people to express, explore, and share their identities, stories, cultures, etc., so how do dance educators make sure all perspectives are seen and celebrated?
