One of my favorite quotes said by Lou Holtz is,
"In this world, you're either growing or you're dying, so get in motion and grow."
I think, as dance teachers, we all have a perpetual desire to continue to learn and grow as dance styles evolve, which makes finding new professional development opportunities so important. While there are many options available, it can be difficult finding the right creditable choice for you. This blog provides you with a list of options to explore whether you are a teacher or a studio owner. It focuses on obtaining certifications versus syllabi experience. So, if I've missed any certifications, leave a comment, and I'll add it to the list!
