Introduction to Dance and Disability Practice

Co-led by Emma Thomas (Cheshire Dance), and Ben Wilson (Cheshire Dance Associate Artist), the day will cover elements including creative practice in disability contexts, use of language and communication skills, behaviour management and more.

Ben is a dance artist with Downs Syndrome who will share his experiences of learning and working in dance as well as leading some movement experiences for attendees. His invaluable insight into dance and disability practice elevates this training and provides an opportunity for any dance artist to further develop their practice and gain new insights.
