Hubbard Street Dance Chicago

Biography: 

As bold in the classroom as it is on the stage, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago offers a broad range of education and community programs that enrich the learning process while fulfilling HSDC’s mission as a leading dance educator. HSDC seeks to change the lives of students through dance by providing teacher education, residencies, curriculum development, experiential activities, and exposure to professional dance. HSDC is dedicated to furthering dance education, not only through its partnerships with schools, but also through work with local, state, and national organizations such as the Chicago Public Schools, the Illinois Arts Alliance, the Kennedy Center Partners in Education Program, and the National Dance Education Organization.

Artistic Statement: 

Hubbard Street Dance Chicago's (HSDC) approach to dance education brings students into the world of dance by actively engaging them in perception, research, reflection, and discussion. Our process-based curriculum assists students in strengthening basic proficiencies to develop analytical and abstract thinking, interpretation, and problem-solving skills that are as relevant to studying dance as to analyzing literature or exploring physics.
