Creating a Safe Space for Performance – Setting Up Students for Success: A discussion with a Recipient of the Queen’s Diamond Jubiliee Medal
At Dance Education Canada, we know that dancers can realize the fullest extent of their talents in a nurturing, positive and safe physical and cognitive environment. Part of a “whole dance education experience” includes allowing dancers to explore their own creative process. Allowing dancers to express their own thoughts and ideas through movement, while giving them opportunities to communicate through creation, will help dancers form a deeper understanding of movement and its connection to storytelling. Is there a specific recipe that includes ideal conditions required for dancers/performers to truly immerse themselves in a focused, engaged explorative experience? We will take a look at answering this question today. Helping us understand how important creative expression is for our performers, and how to create ideal conditions for successful performances is the recipient of the 2013 Queen’s Diamond Jubliee Medal and Founder and Director of Burlington Student Theatre is Mr. Rainer Noack.

Rainer is the recipient of many notable awards, including the Burlington Arts Person of the Year and Burlington Performing Arts Centre Hall of Fame inductee.

Strength, confidence, and great work ethic are core values that Rainer applies to his career as an Arts Educator, and instills in his students as a sure path to success. The work
