Every Body M.O.V.E.

Movement Opportunities through Virtual Education

Colorado Ballet's Education and Community Engagement Department wants to make it as flexible and simple as possible for teachers to support their student’s learning with no additional cost. Out of this desire, we have created a
program that not only meets those needs but also helps improve creativity, social and emotional skill development,
and physical health.

WHAT

Join the Every Body M.O.V.E. program, a 16-week virtual workshop series that includes two, 2-5 minute, regularly occurring movement-based videos per week for elementary school students. These videos are available in two tracks (K-2nd & 3rd-5th) as support materials for teachers to be used in class or as assignments for students independently and cover diverse subjects to support students and curriculum.

Cost
This program is provided at NO COST to schools.

WHY

Our brains need movement now more than ever as screen time increases. This offering is unique to teachers and competitive with the existing online options because it allows for a continued partnership with a local cultural and performing arts organization.

The potential for this program to connect students' other experiences is vast; not only does the content connect to schools' curriculum, the opportunity allows students to continue learning about dance by experiencing movement for themselves.

These videos will do the following:

- Encourage students to move
- Help with engagement in lessons
- Allow for kinesthetic learning
- Promote mindfulness
- Connect to classroom lessons
- Align with state and national education standards and learning objectives
- Serve as brain & body breaks
- Include written support materials and closed captioning for accessibility
