Cheshire Dance is at the centre of development for dance across Cheshire. Our work includes a high quality programme of activity, which encompasses our whole community.
Cheshire has a vibrant dance community. We advocate for dance that is delivered by Cheshire Dance artists and independent artists as well as work delivered by other organisations. We stage a regular series of dance classes throughout the county. These are for everyone from toddlers to grandparents, in different dance genres and styles.
Cheshire Dance is passionate about equality of opportunity. Over two thirds of our work focuses on inclusion and diversity and all our work has mental and physical health benefits. We prioritise work with groups who have an identifiable need. These take the form of regular classes with particular groups or specifically developed projects.
We support the quality and safety of our entire programme of work through our CPD programme which attracts both dance artists and other professionals working in the community.
Working in partnership with arts, public sector and voluntary organisations and others such as Arts Council England, Foundation for Community Dance and Local Authorities, Cheshire Dance reaches across all communities.
Cheshire Dance provides an advice service and we are always interested in discussing new projects. Call our office on 01606 861770. We look forward to speaking to you!
