Join The Conversation
For Teachers & Choreographers
As a teacher or choreographer, you are trusted with more than movement. You shape the culture of rehearsals, sets, and performances.
The way you lead has a direct impact on the safety and wellbeing of every dancer in the room.
For too long, power has been misused in this space. Boundaries have been blurred, unsafe training has been normalised, and systemic, harmful behaviours have been excused as part of “the industry.” The Mighty Elephant is here to work with you in building a new standard of leadership: one rooted in safety, accountability and respect.
How We Help
Establish Professional Boundaries
We help you understand and implement clear, ethical boundaries that protect both you and your dancers.
Education & Training
We deliver practical guidance on recognising grooming, harassment, and unsafe practices between colleagues, as well as how to respond responsibly when harm occurs.
Regulatory Certification
We offer pathways to certification through The Mighty Elephant frameworks, demonstrating your commitment to safe and professional practice.
Guiding Safe Leadership Practices
We provide tools to create rehearsal and performance environments that prioritise wellbeing, encourage open communication, and reject fear-based authority.
Accountability Frameworks
We support you in adopting transparent systems for accountability, so dancers know where they stand and you are held to the same standards as the rest of the industry.
Safety is not separate from creativity, but it is the foundation of it.
When dancers feel safe, they flourish. When studios, teachers and choreographers prioritise protection, they strengthen trust, reputation and set the industry on a new path.
Working with The Mighty Elephant is a commitment to building spaces where harm is not hidden, and where every dancer can thrive and be given tools that they can resource throughout their career.
One voice starts the conversation but many voices invoke real and lasting change.
