DEMENTIA FRIENDLY DANCE

We offer dementia friendly dance sessions to care homes and day care centres for the elderly. The sessions combine therapeutic movement activities with social dance, offering a range of opportunities for participants to take part. We use music from a variety of cultures and social eras, and we are always open to requests. A range of props will be used to encourage movement.

Sessions can be offered which focus on social interaction. We will bring a team of dance buddies who will talk to residents, dance with them while they are seated or standing, and we will also sing along to many of the songs.

Therapeutic sessions also offer a social aspect, but they may not involve dance buddies.

 

 We are sometimes able to offer a series of 5 free sessions to care homes, and then further sessions will carry a fee.

Please complete the form to enquire about our sessions. Many thanks to Sussex Community Foundation and Magic Little Grants for supporting and subsidising our work.

Thanks to generous Crowdfunding donations we are running free Dementia-friendly inclusive social tea dances once a month at the Arthur Easton Centre, St Michael's Hospice. Contact us or check out our Facebook page to find out more.
