Residencies, Workshops & Professional Development
In School and Community-Based Programs

Destiny Arts Center offers short-term and long-term residencies, workshops and professional development for teaching artists and classroom teachers. Our outreach programs combine dance, theater, and/or martial arts with practical skills building in violence prevention (awareness, self-defense and conflict resolution). The purpose of the program is to teach partcipants tools to inspire them towards positive and effective participation in their schools and/or communities.

Outreach programs can happen during after-school, in-school, and/or weekend hours. Programs run at school sites, various community settings or at Destiny Arts Center as field trips. Students may perform in designated school events as well as Destiny Arts Center produced performances over the course of the year.

Movement Discipline + Violence Prevention
Outreach programs involve a rigorous regime of movement training, in combination with fun games and role-plays that help participants practice specific violence prevention techniques. The program is centered on Destiny's Five Fingers of Violence Prevention curriculum and the Warrior's Code, which students learn and practice in depth.
