LGBTQ+ Accessible Dance

Shake your hips, get your groove on and dance along to all your fave tunes.

Learn new skills and movements to promote body awareness, holistic health and fitness. Do as much or as little as you like, you can be seated or standing (some of our dancers choose to just do the upper body moves). The sessions are adaptable to different mobility levels and most of all, are lots of fun!
