We do not underestimate the amount of emotional and physical commitment being a quality dance educator takes! You have incredible influence over the children you teach and their parents and they affect you as well. We want to support you with the resources, tools and education you need to help embrace your students as WHOLE beings and instill lessons that go beyond the moves! We also want to make sure you do not burn out or feel discouraged in the process.
