Dance with us in summer 2026!
Made to Move

Monday 27th - Friday 31st July 2026
St Germain's Church, Birmingham

Join us for a week of dancer, creativity and community. We'll move, make and reflect together in a space that welcomes everyone from total beginners to experienced dancers.

This faith-inspired week ends with a performance featuring everyone who wants to take part, alongside our company dancers. Come with an open heart, ready to move, connect and be refreshed.

IT HAS BEEN SO WONDERFUL - a joy to connect with dancers of faith, formidable teaching, such amazing creativity.

Esther, Refresh 2025 participant

I loved dancing with other Christian dancers and the atmosphere was so welcoming and friendly and supportive. I loved the variety of classes and I really enjoyed the technique classes. I reall enjoyed the connect sessions as it was lovely to be creative together. Thank you for a lovely, refreshing and joyful week!

Emily, Refresh 2025 participant

This week was AMAZING! I felt so welcome and safe. This was the first time for me doing contemporary and it was such a good intro. Great time connecting with God in the connect sessions. Really felt Him speak! Thank you SO MUCH! So blessed by this.
