This video introduces students to the five Elements of Dance.
Hannah Beach created the “I Can Dance” series to help support children and youth in exploring feelings, ideas, and experiences through movement, and extracting the dance from within. With 6 inspiring titles, available in French and English, the “I Can Dance” series promote self-expression and learning through movement by representing themes like colours, feelings, and even food in a dance movement format. The books are designed for children Kindergarten to Grade 6, and are accompanied by a CD with music to help participants dance out the themes in the book.
