Dance Residencies

Dance Residencies

Eveoke dance classes affirm that through the discipline and commitment of dance, youth of all ages receive…

A consistent and fun way to move their bodies and improve physical health
A structured dance class that works with students of varying abilities
A safe environment and music that has a positive message
A positive outlet for their personal creative voice
An experience of community-building with their peers
An energetic dance class with clear goals relating to dance and residency themes

Eveoke dance residency themes are specific to age group and can be adapted depending on the needs of your students, site, and overall residency goals.  Creativity, innovation, and thoughtfulness are what we strive for in the experience of each class. Each class includes a structured warm-up, across the floor exercises, student choreography/creation, dance-based games, and an opportunity to work on a dance created by the teacher and performed at the end of the class. Our teaching artists have significant experience working with students who may have had difficult pasts, poor work habits, and low self-esteem. We lead by example in all of our programs, and civic involvement through the medium of dance is Eveoke’s regular practice.
