This intensive workshop includes instruction in improvisation, repertory, and the Dancing Wheels technique based on traditional modern dance that is translated and adapted for dancers with and without disabilities. New this year, students will receive training based on our teacher-training manual. We will take participants on a step-by-step guide of how to perform and teach our specific technique.
