Vision Impaired Dance Classes

The Vision Impaired Dance classes are a fun, social way to help you improve fitness and posture, exercise your body and mind, and listen to great music in a social environment.

Dancers take cues through a physical connection, with the leader using the connection to communicate with the follower and the follower using it to suggest feedback.

Dancing is for everyone!

” It’s reassuring to have someone to guide you. I’m using my sense of touch, and of course, having someone to support you gives you greater confidence.” Simon

“I used to indulge in ballroom dancing as a child. I’m so glad I’ve come back to it. I’m having fun and keeping fit at the same time.” Jesscia

Emma, one of our students from the Vision Impaired Class

I have been doing the Tuesday night vision impaired ballroom dance classes for a number of weeks now, and I love it. Ballroom dancing is a beautiful thing to do. Not only does it give good exercise, and you learn good moves. But the physical contact is lovely to have. My favourite dance is the tango. I am so glad that I have taken up ballroom dance classes this year. Probably one of the best things I have done for myself. Emma

“It’s really empowering to teach dance to people who have never experienced it before. Music lifts the spirit and dance can be very addictive.”
