Dance. In Community :)
El Dorado Elementary. December 2013. San Francisco, CA
I view dance as a form of community building.
Below is footage of work within the SFUSD; Students, teachers, principles, staff & administrators learn choreography in dance class during the curricular day, then come together to perform as a class and / or an entire school community.
At times these performances are stand alone, at times they’re piggy-backed onto all school events, at time they’re purely celebratory & culminating in nature.
And at times they’re community Savasanas.
Rehearsals can be facilitated by Youtube-ed choreography (an archive); Yay for the internet!
