Youth Education Residencies

Knowledge of contemporary dance and dance in general, is limited but growing in Los Angeles. As a result, dance education is a key goal for NOAH. Through Youth Education Residencies, NOAH performs lecture demonstrations for dancers and non-dancers in grades K-12 and at Colleges and Universities as well. NOAH has performed lecture demonstrations and workshops at Hamilton High School, Pomona College, CalArts, Citizens of the World Charter School, Just Dance Co., William Grant Still Arts Center, and St. Bernard’s High School, among others. Most recently No)one. Art House has been invited to teach a dance course for i.am College Track, a college preparatory organization for underserved youth in the community of Boyle Heights, Los Angeles.

During these residencies, students participate in movement exercises, introductory contact improvisation techniques, and learn collaborative approaches to movement creation. Youth Residencies culminate in a performance of NOAH Repertory.”
