Girls in Motion Spring 2024 Application
Thank you for your interest in joining Girls in Motion! Please complete your application by Sunday, February 11th.

Girls and Kids in Motion is a unique after-school program for girls in Oberlin Public Schools that uses movement to build trust, collaboration, and body positivity. In after-school classes taught by Oberlin College student mentors, we introduce young students to fun and integrative movement forms, including dance, improvisation, and theater games, as well as creative activities such as arts and crafts. This ExCo course will prepare college students to be mentors in the program by helping to teach facilitation, lesson planning, and to consider the role of race, gender, class, and body diversity in an after-school program.  This course will give you a practical and theoretical approach that can support you in future education opportunities, but no dance, theater, or education experience is required. Students of all gender identities welcome!

In the schools (subject to change):
