Since 2000, Lincolnshire Dance has changed the face of dance, created a new energy and proved that dancers can earn a living creating, performing and teaching dance in the county.
Testimonials
“I think I see it more from a practitioner's side as I've never lived in Lincoln and when I moved in I didn't know to start. I went on a surgery day and got my information from there, found out what was available, what I could do - it started me off. If it wasn't for Lincolnshire Dance's help, I don't know where I would be now. There's a lot of advice and maybe opportunities down the line.”
As part of the countywide Dance4Life programme, a local focus is being given to the villages of Wragby and Bardney this Autumn!
Work in these areas are just one part of the programme which exists to give a local focus to the national Change4Life scheme, that aims to increase physical activity levels and encourage healthy eating. The aim is to encourage adults who have not yet chosen to dance for any number of reasons including geographic location, health or financial, to choose dance as a social and fun way to enjoy an active, healthy life style and improve their sense of well-being.
Taster sessions have taken place in both villages, in which locals were given the opportunity to try out styles such as Bollywood, Belly dancing, sword and medieval dancing which were led by instructors in 20 minute sessions.
Dance4Life encourages people in these villages to tell us what dance classes they want on their doorstep! The programme is funded by the Health and Wellbeing fund and is supported by Lincolnshire County Council, so it is crucial that people speak up out about what they would like to see!
What the team at Lincolnshire Dance would like to see is a repeat of the success of an existing focus area – the South Holland village of Holbeach St Marks. Following taster sessions back in May, classes in a variation of styles including Dance4Life branded Zumba and line dancing have continued to meet the needs of the village locals with the full support of Dance4Life!
If you live in either of these villages and attended either of taster days – we would love to hear your feedback and find out what you would like to see in your village!
