"Integrating Consent Practices in Dance Education"

I am especially honored to be mentioned by name, with several citations and with the words, "Perry has taken a particularly leading role..."in this article in the latest issue of the Journal of Dance Education. Thank you. Being seen in this way means so much.

Also glad to see Intimacy Direction in Dance included and to be alongside my colleagues Rocío Mendez, Adi Cabral, and Brooke M. Haney.

The article is available to NDEO members or if your institution has access to Taylor and Francis journals here.

All the Folks that Need to Share my Silver Palm- Part 2

It is such a lovely honor to receive a Silver Palm, because it come from my colleagues! Congratulations to everyone making art in South Florida (it is not the easiest sometimes….), and especially to the other honorees listed here!

But I would be remiss if I didn’t thank the folks involved in these productions I am being honored for. My work only works when it supports the story and the actors can confidently embody it.
