In this episode, we sit down with Jody Gottfried Arnhold—visionary dance educator, founder of the Dance Education Laboratory (DEL) at 92NY, and a passionate advocate for arts in public life. From her early love of dance to decades spent teaching in New York City public schools, Jody’s journey has been guided by a deep belief in the transformative power of movement. She reflects on her path from dancer to teacher to philanthropist, and shares insights into what dance offers beyond technique: empowerment, expression, and democratic literacy. A tireless champion for dance as essential education, Jody speaks about founding DEL, the joy of seeing her students become leaders, and what it takes to create lasting change in the arts.
