When working with younger ages in a residency, the elements of dance can be used to create a bridge to, and a blending with, the curriculum. Roz assists and supports holistic learning in working with all ages, by combining various mediums such as dance, visual art, literature, etc. A residency can include creative movement, improvisation, teacher workshops, master classes, school performances and choreography for production. Roz enjoys teaching all ages and collaboration with other artists during the residency.
