Can’t help but break into a dance move in the playground, or are you more of a kitchen twirler? These school holiday dance workshops will be an opportunity to cut some new movements, facilitated by the energetic dancer and local choreographer, Jade Dewi.
Over the 3-hour workshop, Jade will be working with young people to devise individual expression through movement and dance and choreograph the group for a final performance. If you’re keen, Jade will also help you develop a movement performance for the screen, with the option to capture movement using a green screen and combine your movements with video effects.
