Children and Young People
We believe children and young people deserve high-quality dance experiences that are compelling, coherent, and progressive. Through dance, young people can widen their aspirations and achieve their full potential as successful learners, confident artists and responsible citizens.
We want to create a rich dance experience that allows young people to not only participate in a range of dance genres but also to give them the experience of creating dance, performing, viewing, appreciating and taking up leadership roles.
The key objective is to provide a seamless dance experience that takes an individual from the first steps in dance, deepening engagement through participating in dance both in and out of school, to progression onto training for a dance career.
The lasting legacy will be for young people to become lifelong dance enthusiasts and participants – and for some, our dancers, choreographers and teachers of the future. And for these few, have a thriving dance sector where Tees Valley can be a place for professional artists to work, perform, teach and lead.
