ABOUT US
This Is Us Dance offer regular and accessible creative movement classes, in and around the West Kent area, for children and adults with additional needs.
​
It is our safe, creative outlet that enables individuals to be seen, heard and belong. We explore the joy and creativity behind movement to build upon the fundamental cognitive, social and physical skills.
It is our methodic layering that enables children and adults to learn and grow; gaining ownership of their movement, in turn building upon their self worth, confidence and creativity. Our sensory based, accessible approach to dance empowers these young people and supports the foundations towards achieving their aspirations.
​
Our community embraces the individual through validation and time. Even with the smallest movement of a finger, we notice it, accept it and join the individual in that place. Everyone in our sessions will be seen and included.
​
"It is inclusion, but not as you know it!"
