Through dance, people can widen their aspirations and achieve their full potential as successful learners, confident artists and responsible citizens. Dance offers a wide range of benefits, including artistic & aesthetic understanding, cultural awareness, health and well-being, learning & attainment, life & employability.

Dance is unique as a physical art form sitting across both sport and culture. It is an accessible, adaptable and enjoyable form of physical activity and cultural and artistic expression. Moreover, it improves fitness, educational attainment, opens up new career opportunities and widens artistic and cultural horizons. It has particular appeal to people who may not readily engage in traditional sports, such as young women and some cultural/ethnic groups.

Dance is great at any age, from classes for children to care home activities. Everyone can dance, including those who are able-bodied or have a physical or learning disability. It is an all-inclusive activity and art form! Dance can be done in informal settings like gardens, bedrooms and even parties, as well as in formal settings.
