LIKE Youth Dance Workshop

Last Saturday Misha and I delivered four short workshops as part of an activities day set up by Telford Council. The day was held at Sundorne Sports Village in Shrewsbury. We were assisted by Vinnie a freelance dance artist who works in the Telford Area. We worked with young people from the age of 8 to 15/16 with physical and learning disabilities. We had originally planned to teach a session based on super heroes but very quickly decided to change the plan to something more physically dynamic and shorter as our 45 minute sessions were condenced to 20 minutes. It was lovely for me to see one or two young people I had previously worked with. We had lots of interest from the young people and their familiies about other activities they could do with us. We have taken details from lots of people for our mailing lists and future LIKE activities. Despite being unwell with a raging ear ache on the day I had a wonderful time and feel that I rose to the challenge of changing the original workshop plan at the last minute.
