Dance Educators Training Institute (DETI) 2026

Join us for our 20th annual Dance Educators Training Institute (DETI) in partnership with Baltimore County Public Schools (BCPS) and Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC) this June 29-30! This event introduces dances of resistance: Capoeira, Frego, Samba, and Irish Step.

DETI’s mission goes beyond dance techniques. The two-day workshops will offer culturally responsive teaching, touch upon history and ritualistic wellness, and also focus on mindfulness and self-care practices, and, of course, keep you moving.

New addition to the DETI Program
