Join us for an inspiring journey into the world of Community Dance. The Acosta Dance Foundation and the Acosta Dance Centre are pleased to announce a second year of collaboration with Tanztheater Performance Group. As a cornerstone of the foundation’s Education and Community Programmes, we are proud to present four complimentary workshops, inviting you to immerse yourself in the transformative potential of movement. Join us as we discover how dance serves as a profound catalyst for connection, empathy, and boundless creativity.

Embodying the values of identity, continuity, respect, diversity, and creativity, our Community Dance group celebrates the universal language of dance. Rooted in the rich cultural legacies of Cuban traditions together with the identity of Tanztheater performance group, we come together to share our stories, experiences, and voices through movement.

Led by Tanztheater Director Adrian Look, our open-level workshops offer a welcoming space for participants of all backgrounds and abilities. Throughout the sessions, we will delve into the fundamentals of community dance projects, nurturing authentic connections, and fostering a spirit of acceptance and peacefulness.

Through our unique Questioning and Answering approach we will explore how movement can be used to tell meaningful human stories. Together, we will unite as a diverse group to create and share our choreographic expressions, celebrating the beauty of individuality and collective creativity.

At the end of our journey, we will showcase a new piece at the Acosta Dance Centre on Sunday, December 8, 2024, highlighting the culmination of our exploration and collaboration. Past performances have taken place in various venues including Woolwich Works, each adding its unique flavour to our artistic expression.

No extensive dance education is required to join our Performance Group. Whether you’re drawn to physical theatre, or acting, or simply have a passion for movement, all are welcome to join us in embracing the joy and power of dance. Come and let’s embark on this transformative journey together, where every step tells a story.
