We’re excited to offer a new spring course for all those who work with young children: Love, Move, Play: Dance in Early Childhood. Explore how dance can be used to support young children’s need to move, investigate child development in an embodied way, and design dance activities with children’s choice and voice at the center.
Live outside the Bay Area and always wanted to take a workshop with Luna? This Zoom format makes it accessible to you!
In celebration of Bay Area Dance Week 2020, Luna Dance Institute faculty, Cherie Hill, Aiano Nakagawa, and Patricia Reedy share inquiry projects in a recorded podcast. The Dance Teaching Artists explain the organization’s inquiry-based approach, and share recent projects, taking a deeper look into self-derived questions from practice. Topics include child-centric instruction, and researching and defining organizational culture.

Teaching artists, dance educators, and dance leaders are sharing so many tools to help us stay connected and creative right now. On this page you can find some produced by Luna, our alumni, and our community partners and teachers. This list is not exhaustive! We know you may be bombarded with so much through email and social media, and so we are curating this collection with our Luna dance educator community in mind. However, if you’d like to share a resource that is helping you, please share by emailing Jochelle, jperena@lunadanceinstitute.org. We’ll be updating each day.
