"Cultural Awareness for Dance Educators" supports you in understanding the role culture plays in creating welcoming spaces. We focus on building better relationships by ensuring our teaching is responsive to diverse student needs.

By being open to cultures that are different from our own, we will be able to provide the best education for our students.
