What 50+CDS Members Say
“I have never done contemporary dance before. I am delighted to have an opportunity at this stage in my life, to learn it, practice it and enjoy it. You have made it completely accessible and normal for people over 50 to take up such dancing”
“What a wealth of experience we have between us, what preconceptions about the older body we can dismantle, what stories we can tell…”
“The dance sessions are fun and good for getting both the brain and body working in a creative way in response to all sorts of music. We’re a really friendly group, come along and have a go –
it doesn’t matter if you’ve never
danced before!”
