ILL NANA/DCDC is proud to announce that RTD has now opened its doors to LGBTQ affirming teachers/facilitators to teach classes and workshops in dance/movement arts.
Right To Dance Drop-in Classes: are dance or movement classes/workshops are taught by caring and compassionate facilitators in order to create more affirming spaces for LGBTTIQQ2S*people, people of colour, people with varying body types, class backgrounds, and abilities.
Whats Different and New?
The schedule is no longer fixed, every week can have different classes, workshops, and facilitators. Please check out the FB group: Right to Dance Free Affirming Dance Classes or www.illnanadcdc.com for specific details for each workshop, some workshops prioritize or are closed spaces for specific communities to gather.
What remains the same?
Every Sat at the 519 Church Street Community Centre Room 301, there will be LGBTQ affirming dance/movement workshops running in between 1-5pm.
Classes are Sliding Scale PWYC No One Turned Away from Lack of Funds. We’re starting a skill/item exchange as a way to pay for classes this year. We are looking for folks with diverse skill sets in graphic design, admin, finance and beyond. get in touch with us at rtdexchange@gmail.com and we’ll go from there.
Reminders:
*wear whatever makes you feel good, as long as you can move in it.
*you may wanna bring: water, snacks, towel, and additional clothes you may get sweaty!!!
These classes are currently not funded and are run by donation. Donate today and help spread the word to keep these classes Free-PWYC!
