Sodoran Dance, as a form of cultural heritage, plays a crucial role in maintaining the identity of the Tenggerese people. However, traditional dances are increasingly at risk of extinction due to social changes, technological advancements, and shifting cultural values. To ensure its preservation, it is essential to involve young performers and apply effective pedagogical strategies for teaching and practicing the dance. This study explores the use of pedagogical strategies in teaching Sodoran Dance to young performers aged 7 to 15. Pedagogical strategies include various instructional methods and approaches aimed at enhancing learning and encouraging active student engagement. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through observations and interviews to gain insights into effective teaching methods. The findings reveal that combining behavioristic and constructivist approaches significantly improves both the technical and expressive abilities of young dancers. The behavioristic approach helps refine accuracy and precision in movement, while the constructivist approach promotes creativity, collaboration, and cultural expression. This combination provides a comprehensive model for teaching Sodoran Dance that supports the development of both technical and artistic skills. Ultimately, these strategies contribute to the sustainability and meaningful transmission of Sodoran Dance, ensuring its continued relevance among future generations
