The Dalcroze School of Music and Movement
Dedicated to musicians, dancers, and educators, la Méthode Jaques-Dalcroze is the heart of The Dalcroze School of Music and Movement.
Purposeful movement deepens musical understanding while improving students' ability to perform and communicate expressively through music.
We welcome students both in-person and online, in addition to offering community events and performances every year.
Dalcroze Education sparks joy and creativity by learning music through playful, interactive, and challenging activities.
We inspire students at every level: young children, elementary and middle school youth, teenagers, adult enrichment students, and professionals seeking teacher-training.
We use state-of-the-art technology, including cameras, flat-screen monitors, and interactive software, such as Zoom.

Founded in 2010, the DSM (formerly the Dalcroze School of the Rockies) is one of the only Dalcroze institutions west of Pittsburgh to offer both the Dalcroze Professional Certificate and License. We are accredited by the Dalcroze Society of America, authorized by le Fondation de l'Institut Jaques-Dalcroze to use the Dalcroze trademark, and we have faculty who serve on le Collège de l'Institut Jaques-Dalcroze.
From the DSM Director:
I love the dynamic energy of the Dalcroze classroom: students poised with razor-sharp ears, tuned into every nuance coming from the piano, and ready to demonstrate with their bodies everything they hear. This type of learning inspires creativity, alive with the possibility of new discoveries at every turn, leap, and gesture. When students acquire the habit of listening with this type of intensity, they begin to develop fluency in the language of music and their artistic potential can grow exponentially!—Dr. Jeremy Dittus, Diplôme Supérieur
