Creative Movement: Overview

Awakening Creativity through Movement

Creative Movement for Kids Teacher Training is for adults who value the creative spirit of children and know that children’s primary language is movement. In education, movement is often overlooked except for movement activities that are competitive, not creative. In this training you will learn the principles of reconnecting the child’s spirit of curiosity, creativity and inventiveness with their body, with their natural love of movement.
