YOUTH EXPLORE!!
The programme also includes our Youth Explore Project; A creative workshop for ages 11-21 in which participants work creatively with the professional dancers from Ransack Dance Company.
Participants are led through an energetic creative contemporary dance class led by the professional dancers followed by creative exercises and tasks. During the creative tasks participants will work with the professional dancers under direction from Sarah, working as if they are part of the professional company and experiencing what it is like to be a professional dancer creating new and exciting work!
It is an intensive workshops taking place over 2-3 days in which young people aged 11-21, the Artis Community dance practitioners and the Ransack professional dancers work together to create a performance piece which is then performed in the Artis Community Celebration show and taken to other platforms.
These workshops are perfect for young people aged 11-21 years with a passion for movement and are open to all levels. All that is required is energy, creativity and enthusiasm!
