Pre-Teen Summer Dance Workshops

July 8-12, 2019

Ages 8-12

Luther College Pre-Teen Summer Dance Workshops are designed to introduce the Movement Fundamentals: Moving in Life & Art training paradigm for making dance happen everyday through sitting, standing, walking, running, jumping, spinning, turning, twirling, falling, rolling, going up-side-down, and leaping. We will also explore how “prepositions” -- on, off, around, through, beside, between, under, and over-create dance!
