Research has highlighted the importance of musical experiences in early childhood and their relationship to later musical learning and social and human development. Expressive movement naturally participates in this musical development. However, its inclusion in pedagogical practices with children remains little explored, despite the importance attributed to it by different pedagogues (Dalcroze, Willems, Orff, Gordon). This course seeks to provide theoretical and practical knowledge to develop an appropriate and rich work in terms of movement in early childhood music sessions, and further contribute to the integral development of each child.
