Applications for Seedbed 2024 are now closed
From April to July 2024 we will be joined by artists and dance teachers with a range of different lived experiences as well as inclusive dance expertise. This is a chance to connect with other like-minded artists and facilitators and begin evolving a more inclusive way of teaching young dance enthusiasts.
The course can be attended through individual stand-alone sessions or as a whole series of thirteen sessions, which enables teachers to access our inclusive dance teaching syllabus, IRIS for free.
