GREAT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY BY THE PLACE
Creative Teaching and Learning at The Place is running a professional development day,Catalyst,for teachers and dance artists working in education and I wondered if you would be so kind as to forward the attached e-flyer to any contact you have who may be interested. The event is on March 9th and there is an ‘early bird’ booking offer, so if you could disseminate it as soon as possible I’d really appreciate it.
Why not make 2013 the year you make the dream of running your own dance classes a reality?
GDance has teamed up with the University of Gloucestershire to run a 2-day weekend course for dance enthusiasts, Performing Arts or Sports students and community dance leaders interested in taking their first steps in to teaching high quality dance.
The course takes place at the University of Gloucestershire’s Oxtalls Campus, Gloucester on 9 & 10 February 2013.
The course will help boost your confidence if you are new to dance leadership, and can also refresh the practice of leaders already teaching in the local community. A former student commented:
‘I have learnt many ways in which I can improve as a leader. I have been impressed by the amount of knowledge you have fed to us over the last few days. It was brilliant.’
GDance, who are supported by Gloucester City Council, Arts Council England and several high profile Trusts, have been running this course for 5 years.
It is one of several initiatives designed to develop local talent in both dance teaching and choreography.
