In the summer of 2020, NDEO facilitated online discussions about teaching dance online during the Covid-19 pandemic and possible implications for returning to the school/studio. These discussions were held via a series of ongoing Virtual Special Interest Group (SIG) meetings and webinars featuring NDEO members and invited guests that began in late March and continue today.

Two sessions specifically focused on a potential return to the studio in the fall 2020: The NDEO Cross-Sector Brainstorm Virtual SIG Meeting on May 14, 2020 and College Dance and The Fall Semester, a webinar hosted on May 20, 2020 that yielded significant member input. The content of the document below summarizes the questions and potential practices raised by NDEO members and panelists during these two events. NDEO's Teaching Dance in Fall 2020
