communication
about stories of
human interest
through movement!

JANUARY 21 & 28 . 8AM-5PM

The Dance and Dialogue series at the Luckman enriches our
community by fostering opportunities to experience life skills
sessions, where everyone is encouraged to approach dance with
an open heart and gain in empathetic understanding. Bringing
that emotional openness into the workshop dance classes helps
the kids to understand the deeper meaning of dance, getting to
see dance as a communication through movement about human
concerns and about stories of human interest.

Under the direction of Dance and Dialogue founder Ricka
Glucksman Kelsch, this program at the Luckman is an opportunity
for students to put dance in a context emotional honesty through
movement, and so to grow as an individual. It is a chance also to
see that through that individual growth in empathy, dance has a
place in bringing people together, in their communities and as
individuals.

Participation in Dance & Dialogue requires registration. Please
email us for information on how to register:
