Shropshire Inclusive Dance invited dance artist Jo Fong to lead a day of workshops with our Darwin Dancers group and Contact Dance Company, the workshops were full of creativity, connection and the joy of dancing.
Jo´s love of moving together is very infectious and both groups really enjoyed dancing with partners, in small groups and as a whole ensemble.
Connection is a vital part of dancing with Shropshire Inclusive Dance, whether it’s the connection to our own dancing bodies and our creativity or the dancing connection between each other.
Connection arrives from the moment we greet each other at the beginning of a dance workshop, through to exploring and finding all the ways to connect while we dance, through to a closing circle of dancers and friends heading back out into the world.
Listening and responding through touch, through breath, through rhythm, playfulness, and through a deeper knowing that comes with dancing with each other, through tears and laughter is at the heart of SiD
Below are some moments from the workshops captured by Ray Jacobs
