Students in all grades will experience some folk dances throughout the year. These dances have many benefits for students at all levels!

Folk dancing can help to students to develop...

• musical skills like steady beat, awareness of tempo and form
• physical skills like loco-motor coordination, awareness of space, moving to a beat),
• social/emotional skills to interact appropriately with others in a variety of situations.
