​​This 150 hour certificate program is for the dance artist/ teacher who is interested in somatic studies and learning how to teach dance with a somatic approach. The program is rooted in Laban Movement Studies, Bartenieff Fundamentals, Developmental Movement Patterning and Creative Dance Practices, from a phenomenological perspective.  Learn how to teach dance from principles and concepts that support students to work from internal sensation. â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹This program is geared towards dance artists and dance teachers who have already completed their core dance training (or are in process of completing). â€‹â€‹â€‹

Testimonial of the First Graduate from the Program:

"Studying with Donna deeply changed my understanding of my body and my teaching. The one-a-one structure of this teaching/mentorship program allowed for personal growth in a very unique way: I felt heard, supported, encouraged, and that I could ask what I really needed to support my learning, as a dance artist and a dance educator. My movement and my teachings are never going to be the same and I am excited to see what comes next!"

- Carolina Bergonzoni â€‹
