Motion Arts Mallacoota Intergenerational Creative Dance

Motion Arts Practice:

embedded creative practice parallels teaching and sharing practice
balances the mastery of technique with the artistry of expression

help students learn to make art and make art to learn
is taught by artists who also teach (teacher-practitioners)
is multi-sensory, developmentally appropriate, and makes learning joyful and meaningful!

Motion Arts designs tailor-made arts programming, that can integrate into school curriculum, themes, and core values. We also run training for teachers about teaching arts across the curriculum.

When working collaboratively with students and teachers these objectives are held fore-most:

access to all
education, stimulation, and skill development
expanding horizons by encouraging creativity, collaboration, and individuality
working towards a real and tangible outcome

We work with students’ interests and then explore art concepts and technique as well as art functionality. This promotes ownership and sharing results. We broaden horizons by bringing out students’ personal, artistic nature and fostering it through the work we do together.
