Abstract
Although the beginning of North American post-secondary level dance education is often traced to physical education, dance programs have since migrated to Fine Arts Faculties. Despite these developments, dance has not entirely disappeared from physical education contexts which are now often under the umbrella of kinesiology. This context can hold new possibilities for dance-inspired movement education. In this paper, I, as a trained dancer with a research degree in the broad field of kinesiology, reflect upon my experiences of designing an undergraduate dance-inspired movement fundamentals course in a multidisciplinary, research-led Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport, and Recreation in Canada. I further contemplate possible positive implications of including dance research, dance practices, and dance education in this context and the undergraduate kinesiology curriculum.
