Movin’ On Up with Kris Olson

  • University of Memphis Campus School 535 Zach H Curlin Street Memphis, TN, 38111 United States (map)

Starting with toddlers and preschoolers, we’ll move on up through elementary and middle-aged children to discover ways to use movement to strengthen musical skills, increase musicality, and create avenues for creativity and growth.  Participants will learn adapted folk dances for their littlest students and tried and true processes that ensure success for older children creating their own movement.  A Border Morris stick dance will be taught which has been successfully taught to hundreds of upper elementary students.  It’s always a big hit (pun intended!) as well as a great addition to performances and celebrations.
