Just like classes at school, our dance…

Why Children Need Grit, and How Dance Makes a Difference

Why Children Need Grit, and How Dance Makes a Difference

Why Children Need Grit, and How Dance Makes a Difference Gritty people have a growth mindset; they don’t give up.  This paraphrased quote is from author Angela Duckworth, who popularized the word “grit” with her famous TED Talk about the power of passion and perseverance.  She wasn’t talking specifically about dancers, but she could have been! Children need to develop resilience in order to learn from their experiences and grow into their full potential.  This is why we value determination and tenacity so…
