Cirriculum Writing

I specialize in:

  • Creative Dance – Encouraging self-expression through improvisation and exploration.

  • Integrated Arts & Interdisciplinary Curriculum Design – Connecting dance with literature, visual arts, social studies, and STEM.

  • Embodied Dance History – Bringing historical narratives and masterworks to life through movement.

  • Masterwork Connections – Helping students analyze and respond to influential dance works.

With extensive experience as a curriculum writer, I am available to develop customized dance curricular units for PreK–college-level programs. Whether you need a full-year syllabus, a thematic unit, or a specialized lesson plan, I tailor each curriculum to meet the needs of your students and learning environment.

Elevate dance education with meticulously crafted, research-based curricula that prioritize student-centered learning, creative exploration, and sequential design. Based on 30+ years in the field of dance ed, my approach ensures that every lesson plan is engaging, age-appropriate, and well-structured—empowering students to move, create, and collaborate with confidence.
