About the workshop

The workshop will collaboratively develop an adventuring story, implementing dance, movement, and games to explore storytelling and moving our bodies. This workshop is suitable for ages 8-14 and aims to reinforce positive connections between movement, community, and play. 

We will experiment with storytelling and play with the imaginary to create a narrative through group activities. By the end of the workshop, we may have traversed treacherous volcanoes, rescued royalty, or become pop stars! 

No experience required.

What will I learn?  
New ways of seeing dance as playful, movement as fun, and connection as fulfilling!

What will I take home?

A new openness to play and confidence in yourself and your body!

Is there anything I need to bring? A water bottle, lunch and snacks, and clothes to move in. If your child has any needs (physical and/or information processing, or other, please let Kickstart know so that we can do our best to accommodate these). Everyone is welcome!
