Students in grades 2 and 3 explore dance in hands-on classroom sessions led by 92NY Teaching Artists before attending live performances by some of New York City’s leading dancers and choreographers.

Through exploration of rich dance traditions in class and at live 92NY performances, students cultivate an appreciation for dance in culture and society and a love of movement in all its diverse forms.

Each class participating in the program receives:

  • 18 in-person lessons with a 92NY Dance Teaching Artist
  • Attendance at 2 live performances in 92NY’s Kaufmann Concert Hall
  • Original teaching materials for partnering classroom teachers and a student activity book for each enrolled student
  • 1 Professional Development workshop for partnering classroom teachers
