programme description
With the focus on the pleasure of movement, sessions will explore dance making, using music, simple dance steps and colourful props. Kinaesthetic in approach, the programme will offer ample opportunity to hop, bound, run, dive, leap, turn, kick and stretch, using rhythm and shapes. Playing imaginatively and organically developing ideas through their bodies, children are encouraged to explore their own physical awareness and their movement vocabulary. The children are given time to respond individually, learn from each other and develop their own imagination in relation to moving in space with others.
 
space:   A warm space without distractions, large enough to move around in. Electric socket.
numbers:   15 per workshop involving up to 30 children in a session.
structure of session:   30-45 minutes per workshop - up to three in a session.
equipment to be provided by group:   Min of one adult helper per 10 children.
