Residencies

Our residency arts education programs are semester-long, however, we can work with your administration to accommodate your school’s needs. Throughout the semester, Teaching Artists collaborate with students to create a unique final performance piece for students, faculty, friends, and family to enjoy.

Students are able to push their limits, challenge their imaginations, and creativity and build community, strengthen their confidence and sense of self. Heidi Duckler Dance Teaching Artists mix modern, contemporary, hip-hop, jazz, and experimental dance when collaborating with students.

Assemblies

School assemblies run from thirty to sixty minutes long and accommodate students depending on the space provided. Heidi Duckler Dance Teaching Artists introduce students to the basics of site-specific dance and then perform a movement piece that demonstrates what they learned in a fun way. Students then participate in a movement game.

These assemblies promote creativity, self-expression, and physical, social, and emotional learning where students can explore self-awareness, and expand their imaginations and perceptions of dance.
