I have infinite gratitude for all the master teachers I have observed at Hunter College, the NYC Department of Education, the Dance Education Laboratory at the 92Y and Queens College. They have been extremely influential in developing my perspective about the educational dance setting. Working daily with a diverse pool of students has also broadened and inspired my perspective. My students have shown me how much social dance plays a role in developing a strong dance community. Books about dance education are a guiding source and a way for me to brainstorm new and pre-existing thoughts. Attending various types of performances and symposiums have added to my appreciation and understanding for dance as a whole, and how it can be applied to the educational perspective.
