Notes in Motion offers Community Events and Performances on evenings and weekends. These programs include workshops in different dance styles and techniques, get moving programs, faculty engagement, nutrition and lifestyle coaching — interactive learning that multi-generations experience together. Programs include: group discussion, physical dance classes, small group creative exploration, critical feedback, work sharing, work time, props, costumes, live and recorded music, and writing exercises. Community programs can be linked to community goals, challenges, and social issues or organize around the process of making dance theatre. Most community programs culminate in a performance presentation created by program participants. Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre also performs selections from its rich repertory at our partner schools. Some performances are followed by a workshop or discussion about the content of the performance, careers in dance, as well as training, rehearsing, and understanding the process of creating dance.
