Offered by Curious Motion, a dance and health-based organisation in Elland, Everybody Dance is an exciting opportunity to take part in a new inclusive dance performance project, aimed at encouraging self-expression, connection, and creativity.
This course will support you to express yourself, learn new skills, and connect more deeply with yourself, others, and the world around you. It involves the re-imagining of ‘This Here Land’ a dance piece about togetherness, community, and celebration. During the course you will also have opportunities to get involved with the creative process, and explore other elements of performance, including music, costume, set design. At the end of the course you will take part in a performance as part of the ‘Welland Festival’, Curious Motion’s annual arts for wellbeing event in Elland.
The course is open to all adults, regardless of dance experience or level. You will be supported by Curious Motion’s professional team of dance artists who are experienced at creating flexible, interactive, friendly, inclusive, welcoming and nurturing environments.
The course will be made up of two rehearsal blocks of weekly sessions. Followed by the performance at Welland in October:
A 7 week block and a 9 week block at Elland Community Hub
Wednesday evenings, 6pm-8pm
Block 1-3rd July-14th August (7 Weeks)
Block 2-11th September- 23rd October (7 weeks), plus 2x Saturday sessions, 19th October & 26th October 1:30pm-4:30pm
The performance will be on Wednesday 30th October 2024 in the evening
Learners are asked to commit to all or the majority of rehearsal dates (17 sessions) to ensure they are fully prepared for the performance.
The venue is accessible, support with transport costs is available for participants who require this, and BSL interpreters will be provided where required. For more information about this project please follow this link Curious Motion Welland.
