Come along to the Conservatoire for a creative contemporary dance class for young ones! Together we’ll move our bodies and have fun – exploring ideas, improvising, improving our co-ordination and expressing ourselves through movement. Twisting and turning, young dancers will work together to perform simple sequences and develop their own creativity – we’ll use all our energy and all our ideas! Using the activities and ideas we explore during the session, participants will work towards a short piece of movement which they can share informally with each other. If you love to move and want to explore a different approach to dance, this is the perfect short session for you – all levels and abilities welcome!

Goode, Earth Angel and Back in Time. “It’s a total blast” says the Metro, because when this baby hits 88mph, it “zaps the audience between the eyes and ears to a roar of delight” Variety.
