INTRODUCTION

This course will support the development of your teaching, challenging you to embed creativity and inclusivity at the heart of your practice. Over three trimesters, you'll explore the approaches, creative practices and professional skills needed to excel in dance teaching and facilitation. Study the art and science of dance pedagogy, considering a wide range of learning needs, teaching styles and modern perspectives on teaching and learning. You can choose to develop your teaching practice for a range of formal and informal teaching environments. Your values and personal teaching philosophies are central in shaping and honing your practice.

Industry collaboration and real-world learning are central to our courses. You'll get an insight into teaching dance in various contexts to suit your ambitions as a dance artist. You'll refine your creative practice in masterclasses, participate in two work based placements and observe professional commissions led by established professionals. These will provide you with invaluable industry experience whilst helping you to identify and support the artistry rooted in dance teaching.
