Disrupt Dance Summit

Posted by Disrupt Dance | Sep 2, 2021

Revolutionising professional development for dance educators.

A chance to listen. A chance to learn. A chance to explore new possibilities.

The Summit is all about amplifying voices that are disrupting the status quo and are making changes for the better. Hear from practitioners, researchers, studio owners and teachers doing things differently with great results.

With presentations, practical workshops and panels, the Summit is all about giving you ways to make your dance teaching practice more progressive, more equitable and more enjoyable for all.

This year, the Summit asks us to expand our notion of ‘safe dance practice’.

What happens when we move beyond the physical body to consider things like emotional safety and cultural safety in the dance studio? What does it look like, and how might our students and studios benefit?

The Disrupt Dance Summit will be held live online on Friday 3rd September.

11 presentations and workshops from disruptors in the industry for just $57 solo ticket and $97 for a group ticket.

Can’t attend on Friday? Ticket holders will have access to recordings of all sessions for 6 weeks!

Elena Lambrinos, Founder of Disrupt Dance has gathered an amazing array of facilitators who are bringing presentations that will reshape the way you think about dance.
