Workshops

As well as weekly classes we offer one - off creative workshops. These are with our Artistic Director Lucy Haighton as well as guest choreographers and artists.

During lockdown, Lucy led a series of 50+CDS Dancing In The Parks workshops which took place in Sheffield’s local parks. The workshops were creative and improvisation based with Lucy leading the group through numerous games and tasks which allowed the dancers to connect and respond to the environment and to each other.

Feedback from workshops

The Park Session was both gentle and powerful, with exploration of a varied, beautiful environment. The improvisations were playful and as stretching or easy as we wanted them to be. It was a joy to spend this time with such a lovely group of people

For two hours I joined a very special group of dancers outside in lovely sunshine, connecting with stunning woodland and creating spontaneous dance pieces. Some of us had never danced in the outdoors before but all fears were very quickly allayed. We created tableaux, moved through and connected with the inspirational woodland, through dappling trees and sunshine, by the side of a sparkling lake, through shaded undergrowth, across open lawns. We experienced trust, togetherness, joy in each other’s company, some physical challenges and mental wellness. A truly memorable experience
