ABOVE THE BARRE Dance Teacher Education Skills, Systems & Support — All in One Day

A one-day professional development experience designed to help dance educators teach with confidence, clarity, and purpose.

Because great teachers don’t just teach
They learn. They refine. They grow.

And that’s exactly what this day is about.

We’re learning. We’re doing. We’re moving.

This isn’t a sit-all-day workshop.

You’ll:
✔ Learn practical teaching strategies
✔ Walk away with systems you can actually use tomorrow
✔ Connect with other educators
✔ Eat great food
✔ And leave feeling inspired instead of drained

This experience is designed to feel personal, collaborative, and hands-on.

No overwhelm.
No lecture marathon.
Just real tools for real teachers.

So join us on Monday, July 20th!
