Summer 2022 Teacher Training Intensive Was a Hit!

On August 15th, Dancing Drum hosted 40 music teachers from across the state at our Summer Teacher Training Intensive in Asheville, North Carolina. It was a fun, music-packed day, and we shared a wide range of activities and resources to enrich PreK-8 music programs through hands-on drumming. Check out a video of the day below! 

If you’re interested in bringing a similar Professional Development program to your school district, just let us know!
