What do you teach? I have collaborated with the National Arts Centre of Canada and conductor, Daniel Bartholomew-Poyser to create a Reggae Roots Educational Program for youth, in which I contributed as the featured artist, associate artistic director and lead author of the pedagogical guide. The program has six modules in which schools can register for free to view the video on-demand learning series. I currently administer this program live in schools and through student organizations and music education initiatives across Canada.
