MOVEMENT TOGETHER
A Creative Dance Class
for Families
In Movement Together, families bond with each other while developing skills in different movement forms and becoming comfortable, poised dancers. Tara uses beautiful music from around the world and draws on her background in Indian, West African and Japanese art forms. She leads warm-up and strengthening exercises, teaches different elements of dance, and guides families to create movement, tell stories and have fun together.
In this intergenerational class, parents/caregivers have the opportunity to participate in a creative activity with their children, without being the leader. Children have the chance to initiate ideas and collaborate with their caregivers, engaging with their grownups in a wholly different way.
