Dance away those Lockdown Blues!

Dance away those Lockdown Blues!

05 November 2020

We are embarking on a brilliant music and dance project with English Heritage's national youth programme 'Shout Out Loud', for students age 11-19 and their families.

This term, our YMM Jazz Ensemble will be working with swing dancers and musicians, with a focus on understanding the heritage of Swing Jazz music. Running alongside this is a swing dance project on Zoom, which will culminate with you creating a new dance to music by the YMM Jazz Ensemble.

TO REGISTER please fill in this form by Sunday 8th November.

This is a fully-funded project which is being offered to you for free.

"These dance sessions will focus on rhythm, body awareness, improvisation, listening skills, creativity, dance vocabulary and will also discuss heritage, relationship to music, music and dance history and how we exist in the world around us."

*** Tuesdays from 6-7pm on Zoom ***
