As part of our commitment to offer a cheaper and less hierarchical alternative in the exchange of knowledge in the dance/arts community, Dance to the People has been curating a series of adult classes twice a year since 2015, with the generous support of Brooklyn Arts Exchange.

This series is geared towards the professional development of dance teachers and as a means to offer affordable dance classes to a wide community of dance lovers and movers.

We are looking for dance teachers who would benefit from the space to practice their teaching, at the same time that they offer valuable experiences for the dance community.

This year classes will happen every Tuesday from 10am to 12pm, from October 15 to December 17, 2019.

To submit your class, please email the following information to dancetothepeople@gmail.com

- Dance Style*

- Brief description of the class

- Experience required of participants

- Name, one paragraph short bio, and a picture of you — preferably in movement - this is for us to promote your class. 

- Preferred dates for participation. Because it’s our goal to strengthen the community, you should plan to attend at least one class by someone else. DO NOT APPLY IF YOU CAN’T COME TO SOMEONE ELSE’S CLASS.

Dates: 

10/15, 10/22, 10/29, 11/5, 11/12, 11/19, 11/26, 12/3, 12/10, 12/17

Note: We are running close, so please submit as soon as possible.

Preference will be given to classes that are phisically engaging to an intermediate/advanced level, but with entry points for people with less experience with the vocabulary. That is, make it hard, but make it fun.

All of Dance To The People's events are donation based, as our goal is to promote a culture of mutual exchange. A suggested donation of $8 will be advertised. All proceeds from the donations will go to the dance teacher of the day. We don’t keep a cut.

*Anything from Modern to Butoh to House. At DTTP we want to encourage diversity and any kind of dance or movement study is fostered, as long as it provides intentional strategies for movement research. No tap shoes.
