So I haven't blogged in a while - it seems that there is lots happening with Youth Dance at the moment! I've been getting stuck into lots of the programmes and meeting lots of young people who are taking part, which is great. I was lucky enough to get a trip to Berlin to see the exchange between Flying High Youth Dance Company from Nottingham, and TanzZeit Youth Dance Company from Berlin. It was so fantastic to see everyone learning from each other, not only being creative in the studio, but also learning about other cultures. Florian and the group were very welcoming and provided a brilliant learning experience for all.
So what's been happening in the office....
We've had more interns to give us a hand, including Lewis who provided a fantastic evening at Quake. We have had some of our YDE Stride! participants co-ordinating stamping ground and programming the days as part of their Gold Arts Award. Both Miriam and Emma provided two very successful days. They pulled lots of people in their tents and created a lively and vibrant atmosphere for all. Well done you guys!!
The youth team are working hard with the next part of the international exchange, signature pathfinder programmes, regional and national programmes(check out the Young Creatives!), and we also very excited to have new students starting on the CAT programme in September!
The producing team are busily underway planning nottdance, sharings, tours, CPD events, and the autumn programme at Lakeside - check it out - www.lakeside.org.uk. Sarah is currently working on an exciting improvisation afternoon at the Fringe festival in Edinburgh -how exciting! She is currently occupied by Zoo animals....
I leave you pondering on that one!
Oh and if you hadn't already noticed we have new branding, swit swoo!
