Tina Sabuco is the Artistic Director and Foundress of ARTS ALIVE! Inc. Tina and I talk about how she blends her drama and dance backgrounds to offer an expressive arts program for students of all ages and abilities. Her students include babies and their parents, children of all ages, seniors with Alzheimer’s and dementia, and special needs populations. Also, Tina is impassioned about teacher education. She combines unique teaching methodologies with her extensive teaching experience to provide workshops in arts education for classroom teachers. She has contributed to several books on early childhood dance and creative movement and taught “Arts and the Child” to education majors as an adjunct professor at the University of Houston Clear Lake.
Most importantly, Tina is one of my favorite people on the planet. I’m sure you’ll see why . . .
