In this Kids Partnering Workshop, children ages 9–13 playfully discover the basics of moving together. Through simple exercises, they learn to engage with one another, build trust, and share movements. Through a mix of technical exercises, trying out different lifts, creative movement together, and focused work on choreographic elements, the group learns to perceive each other’s bodies, shift weight, and interact with one another through dance.

Feel free to sign up with a friend so you can experience the workshop together.
