Dance Educators Training Institute 2026

Mon, 29th — Tue, 30th June 2026 | 9:00 am - 5:30 pm

Are you looking to provide your students with a transformative dance experience and don’t know where to begin? Do you want to immerse yourself in dance styles from diverse cultures—all in one place? This year’s event introduces dances of resistance: Capoeira, Frevo, Samba, and Irish Step. Then join us for the Dance Educators Training Institute (DETI) in partnership with Baltimore County Public Schools (BCPS) and Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC) this June 29-30!

DETI’s mission goes beyond dance techniques. The two-day workshops will offer culturally responsive teaching, touch upon history and ritualistic wellness, and also focus on mindfulness and self-care practices, and, of course, keep you moving. For a schedule of the event, click here.
