Outreach Program Policy Page

Welcome our Outreach Program!

Nagata Dance offers Outreach Programs at several school sites during the day residencies and through after-school programs. The main goal for Nagata Dance Outreach Program is to expose children to positive and joyous experience of dance. Classes are fun, lively and engaging while children practice valuable learning skill, become part of an "organic" whole (work together) and express themselves in new and empowering ways displayed in the concluding dance performance and in the classroom.

Student Expectations

The environment of dance class is positive, high-energy and nurturing. The staff at Nagata Dance promotes students to work together, be creative and practice active listening. All enrolled with Nagata Dance are expected to:

1. Dance. This is a movement-based activity. Coordination and muscle memory will be developed, and we encourage all to participate with 100% effort.

2. Respect the teacher(s), classmates and space. We strive to create a fun and safe environment for all students; this requires each person to be aware of his/her surroundings and respectful of each other.

Dress

Comfortable clothing that provides flexible and wide-ranging motion is advised. Please wear sturdy, rubber-soled shoes. Sandals, skirts, and dresses are not advised. To maintain maximum focus, avoid loose jewelry and tie hair away from face. Wear removable layers and choose breathable materials that allow the body to stay cool while dancing.

Open Door Policy

The door is always open at all Nagata Dance Outreach Programs. Provided it is permitted with the school administration and not a distraction, parents and loved ones are welcome to observe dance class. Please pull up a chair and enjoy!
