It’s apparent that there is a gap in students’ ability to focus, self-regulate, perform developmentally appropriate motor skills and respond appropriately to social interactions. To top it off, behavior has become a major challenge. The Early Childhood Classroom certification provides a brain-compatible curriculum to help bridge the gap and accelerate the onboarding of skills.
Intellidance® Method founder, Jessica Griffin, walks us through the student benefits, core curriculum standards met by the program, usages and expectations. The Early Childhood Classroom certification and curriculum are intended for school teachers and daycare providers.
Imagine if…
- Your students could experience the benefits and joy of dance, music, and play daily in your classroom!
- You had a fun, yet effective, curriculum that nurtures cognitive, social-emotional, and cognitive development.
- You didn’t have to spend hours creating lesson plans and teaching resources!
- You could truly make a difference in your students’ lives!
YOU CAN!

“Through Intellidance®, I gained a whole repertoire of activities that I could use to broaden my students’ understanding of core music concepts through kinaesthetic means. I have yet to introduce an Intellidance® activity to my students that is not met with enthusiasm and requests to be repeated in future classes.”
Courtney Richard Certified Intellidance® Teacher/ K-6 Music Specialist
Intellidance® is for everyBODY!
We believe ALL human beings are born with the capacity to dance. Every single one… even those who feel rhythmically challenged. Intellidance® activities are not based on formal dance techniques. It’s based on foundational physical literacy skills. Don’t let the fear of having 2 left feet hold you back from bringing the joy of dance and music to your students.
