Movement in the music room doesn't have to be chaotic, and it definitely shouldn't start with a complex folk dance if your students have never done movement before! In this episode of That Music Podcast, Bryson breaks down a more intentional and developmentally appropriate approach to introducing movement in your classroom.

You'll learn how to scaffold movement experiences so that your students can grow in confidence and coordination over time. From unstructured exploration to guided movement and finally structured activities, Bryson shares practical strategies to help students feel successful every step of the way. Whether you're new to using movement or just looking for a smoother process, this episode will help you set your students up for success, without the chaos.
