Dance with us in summer 2024!
Our Summer Intensive is a great way to enjoy moving and to meet, discuss, share, create, pray, encounter, grow, worship, heal, strengthen, and explore.
Our timetable includes classes, workshops and discussions for all abilities, from complete beginners to advanced dancers.
Suitable for 16+ year olds, or 14+ if accompanied by an adult.
This year we have two course options:
DANCE INTENSIVE
This course runs for five days, from Sunday afternoon through to Thursday evening.
Sunday afternoon we all gather together for an intro session to the Summer Intensive.
Monday – Thursday we are treated to sessions with Psalms and Stretches, alongside elective classes and discussions.
Monday – Thursday afternoons are given over to our Creative Performance Project.
Participants will be guided through a creative exploration in movement and dance, with Springs dancers choregraphing a short performance piece. On the final evening, participants will perform their collective new work for an audience alongside Springs Dance Company.
DANCE LITE
This course runs for four and a half days from Sunday afternoon and Monday – Thursday mornings, plus Thursday evening.
Sunday afternoon we all gather together for an intro session to the Summer Intensive.
Monday - Thursday mornings, Dance Lite participants take part in Psalms and Stretches, elective classes and the discussions but opt out of the Creative Performance Project and can put their feet up each afternoon.
Dance Lite participants complete their week watching the events on Thursday evening.
For everyone, the week concludes with a performance by participants of the Creative Performance Project and Springs Dance Company.
Both streams have classes available for all levels. Suitable for those from 14+.
I found it a really rich time of movement and reflection, and such an encouraging and nourishing environment was facilitated.
LOVED IT! I loved the variety of classes and that is was accessible for all levels of confidence/experience! I loved how you weaved faith into it and it was just so refreshing physically, emotionally and spiritually.
I enjoyed learning new ways to engage with dance and learning how dance and worship can be connected.
