Mass Movement, Inc, offers in-school and after-school workshops and residencies through Young Audiences of Massachusetts with a focus on integrating dance in the classroom. In addition, we offer professional development for educators so that they can incorporate movement into their teaching practice.
Mass Movement is part of a community of educators that values arts in education and its capacity to enliven curriculum, foster creativity and create a positive learning experience.
We draw on the many forms of dance - cultural, social and artistic, to support and enhance classroom curriculum. Our programs incorporate multiple approaches to bringing dance to the world of education - from providing healthy physical activity to using dance and movement in improvisational, creative explorations that provide students with new insights and connections to their studies.

Science – by experiencing principles and theories in action be it gravity, causality or knowledge of the solar system
Math – by looking at concepts of time and space in music and dance |
