An introduction to Stopgap's inclusive practice
In this CPD, led by Stopgap Dance Company, you will take part in an inclusive and accessible skill-based dance class where you are introduced to the practices of the company, including Open Language and Movement Translation skills. The session will culminate in a creative exploration using choreographic tools for inclusive dance practice.
Stopgap work with inclusion and rigour as their core principles, which will be a through-line in this workshop. Alongside the practical element, there will be time to ask questions and reflect on the approaches used within the session.
Led by Laura Jones - Co-Artistic Director at Stopgap and Kajsa Sundström - Assistant Artistic Director (Future Leaders Programme) at Stopgap.
The session is suitable for dance artists and teachers who may be new to inclusive practice or those looking for new ideas!
The session will run on Friday 17 July, 10.30am – 12.30pm.
Please note, bookings will close on Monday 6 July.
