Leaping into Dance Literacy through the Language of Dance® is out now!

Leaping into Dance Literacy through the Language of Dance®


By Teresa Heiland


This book presents the theory and purpose underpinning the approaches to dance literacy as explored by the Language of Dance® community in the United States and United Kingdom. Through their teacher training programs, the community is changing the face of dance-based dance literacy using motif notation.

Arts literacy can deepen dance craft and transfer arts knowledge, capacities, and skills to lifelong learning. Dance-based dance literacy practices using notation enhance learners’ flexibility, adaptability, self-direction, initiative, productivity, responsibility, leadership, and cross-cultural skills.
