THIS IS US DANCE - YOUTH GROUP

MONDAY (TERM-TIME ONLY)

5:00PM - 6:30PM | BISHOPS DOWN PRIMARY SCHOOL | AGES 9+

We believe in embracing creativity and emotion, allowing this to be the driving force behind our work. Dance, is so much more than choreographed steps. It is about communication and the relationship to sound, texture and action.

Our sensory approach sees us explore the joy and creativity behind the movement. Everyone's contribution matters - even with the smallest movement of a finger, we notice it and join the dancer in that place. Our classes give the positive affirmation, direction and care needed for a child to feel a valued part of our community. Self-worth is our focus, giving them a confidence to achieve their aspirations.
