Tips for Hip Hop Dance Steps for a Blind Student (self.Blind)
submitted by Tawanda87
Hi! I'm a TVI in training and currently in a Hip Hop Dance class with my high school student. This hip hop unit has been such a learning curve for me because of the difficulty in teaching isolated body movements. For example, isolating right shoulder shrugs, left shoulder shrugs, hip rolls, ETC. I'm brainstorming with my O&M different ways to approach this but am curious if anyone on here has any tips or tricks they'd like to share. Thanks!

I'm a dancer who has been working on descriptions for visually impaired dancers. Try to familiarize yourself and your student with some badic anatomical directions... internal, external, medical, lateral. Try to follow your own directions first. Feel free to pm to chat if you like.

I learned how to break dance when I was in high school. I'm visually impaired now but I still dance. PM me sometime and maybe we can try to figure something out.
