You will move and explore creative expression and storytelling through a gentle dance class connected with a physical exploration of theatre, memories and the imagination.

The workshop structure is intentionally relational and inclusive. The creative nature of dance theatre encourages collaborative exploration, whether through partner exercises, group improvisations, or shared reflections during post-class conversations. These conversations are a deliberate extension of the creative process designed to deepen interpersonal connection and cultivate a sense of belonging.

The workshop is followed by a conversation, over coffee, about dance theatre's great moments with dance artist and educator Diane Busuttil.

This dance theatre class is designed for those new to dance and movement, wanting to explore creative expression, build strength and mobility, improve balance, and increase short-term memory and musicality, as well as meet new friends in the beautiful surroundings of Sydney Opera House.
