Traditional Korean Dance

April 4–7, 2006

The Korea Society’s School Visit Program arranges semi-annual visits by authors, musicians, storytellers, dancers and other experts on Korea to primary and secondary schools throughout the greater New York area. This spring, choreographer In-Young Sohn and her dance group performed a series of traditional Korean dance routines at five schools. Students were taught the basic movements and meanings of traditional Korean dance. The schools visited were: PS 119 and PS 75 in Brooklyn, New York; Martin Van Buren High School and Flushing High School in Queens, New York; and Anna C. Scott Elementary School in Leonia, New Jersey. Pattie Hart, a teacher at PS 75 whose class took part in the program described it as “ absolutely wonderful. It was great to see the awed looks on the children's faces as they watched and participated. It was definitely a beautiful cultural experience for all."
