Dance has been a part of the human experience since before the birth of the earliest civilizations. Young children love to move to music, and that joy provides an important opportunity to nurture the value of movement within each child’s identity. This dance module is designed to teach students the basics of rhythm and how music informs and enhances the movement experience.
