My public high school dance program serves over 200 students every year. They range from a minority who took dance classes at private studios in their childhood, to a majority who have never before been exposed to dance instruction. The students are 9th -12th graders from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds including Latino, Laotian, Arabic, Japanese, Chinese, Pilipino, and Ugandan, among others. Anyone can enroll in dance classes, and as a result there is not only a great mix of ethnic backgrounds in each class but a great mix of socioeconomic levels. Our student population draws from the most affluent neighborhoods (5 %) and the poorest communities (37 %) in the region. Dance has proved to be a great equalizer. As students find a common language in expressive movement, their differences seem to matter less and they can easily work together as dancers with common goals. In this way, social justice finds its way into every step we take together across the studio floor.
