Showcasing dance styles and dancers from across the globe, Mix & Move is our monthly programme of accessible dance workshops to get you moving to the music. Each session ends with an hour to socialise and connect in the space with your fellow movers and groovers.
For this instalment of Mix & Move, Avant Garde Dance Company’s Associate Artist Dani Harris-Walters brings good vibes, hip-hop expertise and accessible adaptations to guide you through the moves and have you dancing into spring.
Harris-Walters is joined by our resident dancers Damien Anyasi and Natasha Khamjani to introduce you to new dance styles, taking you through the steps so you can light up the dance floor and discover new rhythms.
Each Mix & Move event offers you the chance to explore different forms of dance, learn new moves and meet new people, with plenty of accessible adaptations. Running in blocks of three, come along to get to grips with a dance style for two sessions, and then break out your moves in the final social dance session, celebrating the sounds and the moves of the dance.
