Feeling the pulse connects styles, bodies, and communities. Through popular music and movement, students embody rhythm and cultivate their creativity, social connections, and sense of belonging. In this 3-part interactive workshop series, we demonstrate how to introduce EDM club dancing, country two-step, and salsa dancing for today's K–12 classrooms.
