Dancing to increase Resilience

Supports: Health & Wellbeing through Physical Activity, Dance & Mental Wellbeing

Suitable for all year groups and targeted via PHSE Team
Type: Curriculum and Extra Curriculum Workshops
Delivery: In person at your school

Dance Woking undertook a pilot project in 2021 working with Woking & Surrey Youth service team to offer dance and creative activities on school premises to address the issue of mental health and wellbeing in young people.

Dancing can make a person feel physically refreshed and improve their mood, tackling serious issues including anxiety and depression. Group dancing is a tool to release daily stress, a distraction from everyday worries and an outlet for imagination and emotion.

Dance Woking is offering this programme to schools during 2023/24

Benefit to participants: By being involved in a group activity, such as learning a dance routine, the participants learn the importance of teamwork and develop the ability to work successfully in a group environment. The process also helps a young person learn patience, listening and leadership skills as they start to help each other with learning and practicing the steps. They also learn to accept vulnerability; that it is okay not to be able to do everything first time and that you should feel confident enough to ask for help, either from the teacher or from another student. Dancing encourages children to experiment and find different paths to solving problems. It is vital in a young person’s development to learn the importance of trial-and-error and that, if at first you don’t succeed, try and try again. The sense of success and accomplishment they will experience when they have mastered a series of steps will encourage them to transfer this ambition into other aspects of life. The club will provide a safe environment within which the participants can blossom and grow, practicing important life skills and becoming confident risk takers.

If you would like a series of workshops or an Enrichment Day in the Spring or Summer term, please contact us.

Rotate Performance Parkour

Fantastic session with Alister & Miranda from Urban Playground Team; we are looking to start a weekly session in January 2018; please contact Kate via email office@dancewoking.com if you are interested in taking part. The sessions are likely to be on a Monday early evening.

For an insight into what the group achieved see below:

October Half Term – Rotate – Performance Parkour Special

Alister & Miranda from The Urban Playground Team led the session; participants had the opportunity to use a scaffold frame to develop technique and performance skills as well as work on small group choreographies and sequences. Lots of high energy was required!

For an insight into the Autumn term go to: Mannequin Challenge

About: The Urban Playground Team perform and teach Performance-Parkour or 2PK . Their teaching is inclusive with an emphasis on ability, not disability working with students of all ages, specialising in working with young people at-risk of social exclusion. Performance-Parkour or 2PK is the integration of Parkour’s movement principles and core values within a performance for an audience, whether live or recorded. It can be considered a choreographic language. Critical to Performance-Parkour is the aim of communicating beyond the skill of the discipline and creating a dialogue with and within its practitioner community and audience. It does not describe a display or demonstration of Parkour.
