Hello and welcome to Dance: The Cutting Edge! We’re so glad you’re here!

Dance: The Cutting Edge was conceived and created by Kimberly Beck Thomson, a certified dance curriculum expert, an award-winning choreographer, successful dance studio owner, and third-generation instructor with 35+ years of experience. Kimberly received her certification through Florida Dance Masters – an accredited teacher training organization (Exam Based).

Kimberly’s 25+ years of attending educational workshops and teacher training courses is considered today an “old-school” way of learning. For example, take a class – receive notes – go back to the studio and try to remember what all those written “mumble-jumble” notes meant. Imagine if we had cell phones and we were able to record and shoot videos while taking dance class. How much easier life would have been!

While using her own library of collected materials, Kimberly realized there was a need for all of this standard, written dance-related notes to be available as an online dance instructional course with both VIDEOS+SYLLABUS.

Dance: The Cutting Edge—the first of its kind an accredited, progressive, on-demand instructional dance tutorial series. All of her dance courses include syllabi which can be useful to develop lesson plans or a curriculum for studio owners and teachers alike.
