KB The Woman
I have always moved.
In classes; in performance; around the country; around the world.
As a performing artist & choreographer, I dance to express myself creatively;
As a student, moving helped me to grasp and to understand lessons more deeply;
I have witnessed in others and experienced for myself the power of movement and dance as a transformative healing modality.
I have moved all my life, and made a life for myself by moving.
This is my passion -
Welcome!
KB The Educator
Through her original body of work, “Reaching the Kinesthetic Learner though Movement and Creative Dance, Kimberli has reached thousands. Her workshops for students and professional educators (pre K thru 12 and beyond) integrate basic elements and principles of dance with best practices in teaching and learning. The result is a simple yet dynamic and highly effective approach to enhancing critical thinking skills, literacy, and creativity in core subject areas such as math, science, language arts, social studies, and more.
