S2 Episode 19: "Connected to the bigger picture" (guest Laura Stauderman)
b'
This week, Festival Director Anne Morris speaks with the President of NCDEO (North Carolina Dance Education Organization) and Dance educator, Laura Stauderman. The mission of NCDEO is to support and advance dance education in NC as a component of lifelong learning while providing resources and creating a sense of community for NC dance educators. As a high school dance educator herself, Laura sees firsthand the impact of exposing the next generation to art early on and the social-emotional benefits dance provides. In this conversation, we discuss how those social-emotional benefits became essential during COVID, how art education and experiences are critical even to those not considering a career in the arts, and how connection through dance helps students and educators thrive.
\\n"In Process" is sponsored by Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist\'s Performing Arts Medicine Clinic: WakeHealth.edu/PerformingArtsMed
