Education

 

right2dance provides a vast range of classes via a diverse education and outreach programme, delivering dance sessions to hundreds of participants each week. Workshops are available in a wide range of dance styles and can be based on various themes to link to the curriculum. All are tailored to suit specific needs of individual groups.

 

Dance provides a very positive experience and enables participants to feel happier, fitter and healthier. It also increases confidence, helps improve communication with others and creates a sense of emotional well-being.

 

Throughout the year right2dance works in partnership with local arts organisations, One Ren, youth services, head teachers and local community groups to provide varied programmes of dance for schools and community groups.  As a key provider of community dance within the Renfrewshire area we strive to ensure that our tutors provide high quality dance opportunities that are inclusive, educational and fun.

Examples of practice

 

Pre 5 Performance Project

Delivered in collaboration with Renfrewshire Council by a team of right2dance tutors, this project was a dance and training initiative delivered across 5 Paisley nursery establishments. The programme started with CPD sessions for staff, which were followed by a 12 week programme of creative dance led by right2dance tutors and nursery staff. The project culminated in a performance for the 200 young participants in Paisley Town Hall.

Throughout each year right2dance delivers workshops for health weeks at a number of schools. These sessions are always lively and energetic and include some of the following ideas:

  • Themed creative dance workshops
  • Street Dance
  • Whole school 'wake up' sessions every morning
