The Art and Science of the Plié - Teaching Certificate

Join Franklin Method Faculty Shannon Murphy for 45 hours of Franklin Method training this summer beginning in July 2021.

Learn the cutting edge science behind Dynamic Neuro-Cognitive Imagery (DNI) as applied to dance performance and education. The focus will be on developing mind-body connections that enhance technique, performance and expressivity through mental training & physical insights for both dancers and dance educators. If you are interested in expanding your pedagogy and deepening your own embodiment this module is for you! Franklin Method's student center approach moves anatomy and kinesiology into an experience increasing your level of embodied function. You'll be certified to teach the well-known workshop "The Art of the Pié" which has been taught at The Ailey School, American Dance Festival, The Juilliard School, Royal Danish Ballet, and University of the Arts to name a few.
