2709 East Washington Avenue


Event by Isthmus Dance Collective

Creative Movement from Global Perspectives offers all of the benefits of creative movement (self-directed learning, problem solving, socialization, self expression, confidence, and more!) AND de-centralizes Western dance forms by bringing in guest teachers with expertise from around the world to provide a diversity of perspectives on universal, developmentally appropriate concepts. 

Brimming with energy, curiosity, creativity, and fun geared towards kids aged 2-4, but with plenty of fun to be had for caregivers and siblings; All levels of participation are welcome and we suggest caregiver interaction especially for children under 3yrs.

Dancers will learn about physical and spatial concepts by exploring the ideas through self generated movement and play. The highest priorities are having fun, learning concepts that are useful for both dance and life at large, and expanding physical and linguistic vocabularies.

Come travel the world with us through dance, play, and imagination!
