PRODANCE

This weekly class with company dancers and guest tutors is the cornerstone of a dancer's continuing practice. Maiden Voyage is committed to providing this service as a contribution to the development of a healthy dance infrastructure that supports, respects and nurtures its dancers.


SOMATICS
Somatic Movement is a system of neuromuscular education that allows more ease and freedom of movement and helps with the release of pain resulting from injury, stress, repetitive strain or habituated postures. Six-weekly courses for beginners and intermediate level take place in the Dance Resource Base studio in Belfast.


INSPIRE GRADUATE MENTORING
This mentoring initiative is designed to develop the next generation of dance professionals. The programme provides work experience in dance facilitation and project delivery with participants undergoing in-house training before leading a series of workshops in the community.
