Affiliation: Dance for PD® is a registered trademark. The Dance for PD® name is reserved for those classes taught by certified teachers, or for those programs that are officially licensed by us. Additionally, attendees in the Enrichment course (EPE) who are offering exercise, movement or somatics classes are not permitted to make reference to the Mark Morris Dance Group in promotional materials without written permission from MMDG. By registering for this workshop, you acknowledge that you understand and will abide by this policy.

Credits: Although you will not receive certification in our method by attending this workshop, the introductory teacher training workshop is a prerequisite for future Dance for PD certification. We do not offer Continuing Education credits at this time, but we're happy to provide you with a letter of participation, upon request, after the workshop assuming you have completed the online assessment in addition to the live workshop.

Coordination of programs: Dance for PD classes may already exist in or be planned for your community. Since Dance for PD® programs function collaboratively rather than competitively, we'd like you to be aware of local programs that are on-going or about to be launched. These programs may be looking for additional teachers or assistants. We can help you make contact with local teachers and coordinators. To find a list of classes around the world, please click here.
