Men in Dance: Bridging the Gap - Symposium
NDEO Presents a 2017 Special Topic Conference......
Men in Dance: Bridging the Gap - Symposium
Thursday June 29 - Saturday July 1, 2017
West Virginia University, College of Creative Arts One Fine Arts Drive | Morgantown, WV 26506-6111
This symposium seeks pragmatic solutions
to address the dearth of male dancers in our studios, schools, and companies as students, professionals, and educators.
The male dancer has been present throughout history, but the significant lack of male dancers in the field has been and continues to be a question and a challenge. From early childhood dance and movement classes through secondary education and beyond, the dance world is faced with the question of how to attract more boys and men to the field. This problem is not
limited to one genre of dance, age group, or country; the dilemma is global.
Dance Educators of all genders are welcome!
