The 20th Annual National Dance Education Organization Conference
Connections, Knowledge, and Leadership:
A NEW ERA IN DANCE EDUCATION

Thursday, October 4 – Sunday, October 7, 2018
Hyatt Regency La Jolla at Aventine | San Diego, CA

Join NDEO for our 20th annual National Conference to advance the NDEO Priorities for Dance Education:
CONNECT THE FIELD | BUILD KNOWLEDGE | CULTIVATE LEADERSHIP
Connection: In your teaching, how do you connect to your students with relevant, engaging practices that respond to differences in ability, socio-economic status, religious practices, body image, gender-identity, culture, etc.? How are you building connections with other dance programs across sectors, genres, geography, and cultures? How can we use dance as a vehicle to connect communities during shifts in economics, politics and demographics?
Knowledge: How do we expand and disseminate experiential, embodied, and scholarly research to reenvision how knowledge informed by dance can impact civic engagement, systems, and identity in a new era?
Leadership: How do we model, grow, and develop leadership that inspires innovative programming, political engagement, and local/global advocacy while advancing dance as an art form?
