About Program
Join Movement Exchange for an international dance exchange to Panama on December 27th - January 3rd! Learn what it means to be a dance diplomat, gain teaching experience, and share your passion with other like-minded dancers and movers abroad. During the exchange, you will teach dance to youth in our partner organizations in Panama City and take dance classes from local dance professionals, in styles such as Panamanian Folkloric dance, breakdance, salsa, etc., to foster a unique exchange experience. You will also participate in conversations about child development, cultural competency, and Panamanian history and identity in order to help inform your teaching and service work. Throughout the exchange, you will get to experience Panamanian music, food, and culture, while touring the beautiful neighborhood of Casco Viejo in Panama City.
Come MOVE TO CHANGE with us this winter!

Consider your impact: Volunteering abroad can be a rewarding experience for both volunteers and local communities, and at Go Overseas, we believe all volunteers should have the resources to make informed decisions about the type of volunteer project they want to partake in. However, despite best intentions, some organizations offering placements in orphanages may unknowingly place children in danger. You can read about the potential dangers of orphanage volunteering here.
