La Girandole is a francophone dance association which specializes in French-Canadian dance and culture. We are happy to offer the chance to francophone, French immersion and French as a Second Language students the chance do live a Francophone experience outside of the classroom that is both engaging and fun! To faciliate requests, we propose three types of programs:
A dance workshop is the best option for a dance specialist to teach one group, one time during the day. It's ideal for teachers who would like a more private workshop or a more specialized one to the age group ou to the request.
A dance carnaval is the preferred type of workshop for many schools since the dance specialist teaches more than one group of students during the day. The carnaval is perfect for theme days or to celebrate Francophonie's month! Why not offer more than one group the chance to learn how to dance?
A school residency offers to schools the chance for a dance specialist to teach for more than two days. The goal is to learn and perform a dance show at the end.
