Bringing Stories to the Stage: Speaking at NDEO’s National Conference!
We are thrilled to share some exciting news: Ajanta has been invited to speak at the National Dance Education Organization (NDEO)’s National Conference this year in Detroit!
This opportunity is particularly meaningful because Ajanta will be presenting on a subject that lies at the heart of her work – The Power of Storytelling in Cultural Dance Education.
Dance is more than movement—it’s a language. And when we weave in cultural stories, spoken word, and visual arts, something magical happens: learning becomes deeper, empathy grows, and cultures come alive in the most joyful and inclusive ways.
In her session, Ajanta will explore how integrating storytelling into dance can transform the classroom and performance space into rich, interdisciplinary experiences that reflect our diverse world.
Ajanta is honored to join a community of educators and artists who are passionate about expanding what dance education can be. Here’s to advocating for more dynamic, accessible, and heart-centered learning through the arts!
