Hey teachers- check out the revamped Elements of Dance website! The site provides a concise resource for students to learn about BASTE (Body, Action, Space, Time Energy), the building blocks of dance.     

In addition, the site features individual and group assignments specific to each dance element, and video examples of each element by Minnesota dancers and choreographers.    

Apply it to your learning! Try an Ordway Education Video Lesson on dance, and see how many elements you find in the lesson.
