What is the legacy of the genre/form/style you are teaching?

Dicki Johnson Macy, has for the past 30 years encouraged students trained in this technique to remain responsive beautiful music and to the joyful movements inspired by nature. Self-esteem, grace, reverence, reciprocity and artistry are inherent to the work. A sense of rhythm and harmony develops as students dance the reconstructed choreographies to the music of Schubert, Chopin, Brahms, Beethoven, and Mozart.

What background, training, and or relationship do you have with this style/technique/class subject?

Dicki has trained clinicians and dancers to disseminate this program nationally and internationally. She is a board-certified Dance/Movement Therapist, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and the director of the Boston Children’s Foundation. The Art and Technique of Isadora Duncan informs her Rainbowdance® curriculum. She is one of few Duncan teachers to have studied throughout her childhood with Anita Zahn (Isadora’s student).
