Sexuality is a difficult topic for all educators. Dance teachers and educators are not immune to these educational challenges, especially given the large number of children, adolescents, and young adults who pursue dance study and performance. Most troubling is the lack of serious discourse in dance education and the development of educative strategies to promote healthy sexuality and empowered gender identities in proactive ways. This volume, focused on sexuality, gender, and identity in dance education, expands this developing area of study and investigates diverse perspectives from public schools, private sector dance studios and schools, as well as college and university dance programs. By openly bringing issues of sexuality and gender to the forefront of dance education and training, this book straightforwardly addresses critical challenges for engaged educators interested in age appropriate content, theme and costume; the hyper-sexualization of children and adolescents; sexual orientation and homophobia; the hidden curriculum of sexuality and gender; sexual identity; the impact of contemporary culture; and mass media, and sexual exploitation. The original research provides a frank discussion, highlighting practical applications and offering insights and recommendations for today’s educational environment in dance. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Dance Education.

Through the lens of whiteness as applied to White-body supremacy, this book examines the role racism played in shaping American dance from the late nineteenth century to the present. Thus, this book centralizes the actions of White dancers/choreographers/producers in the form of discriminatory ideologies and practices that were commonplace in American society. Underlying this argument is that the artistic sensibilities and dance/movement elements of Black, Brown, and Indigenous dancing bodies were appropriated by Whites and became the bedrock of American dance. The book includes numerous forms of dance and the many dance figures associated with them. It is written from an interdisciplinary perspective and is far-reaching in scope by casting light on other aspects of American society. To accomplish this reach, the project centers the American dancing body as a way of knowing and as a unique mode of inquiry. It also projects into a future that holds both problems and possibilities.
