Dancing Through the Screen: How Online Dance Education Became the New Norm
Remember back in 2019 when the thought of learning dance online seemed a little - out there? As an online dance education business that started in 2015, trust me - I know that it used to be hard to convince people that it could work. Enter: The year 2020 and Covid. Now, learning to dance in your living room through a screen is not only understandable, it's the norm! And it's even been shown to be a better way to learn dance!
In the pre-pandemic era, the idea of mastering dance moves from the comfort of your home, guided only by a screen, seemed like a distant possibility. Many dancers and parents alike preferred the traditional studio setting, with its face-to-face interaction. But oh, how things have changed!
With the onset of Covid-19, dance studios shuttered their doors, and dancers were forced to adapt. Suddenly, learning dance online became not just an option, but a necessity. And guess what? It worked – and it worked well!
