Guardian Dance Project Goes Ahead

We are really delighted to announce that the company has been awarded funding by the Communities First Trust Fund to work with Six Bells Communities First, on a project involving The Guardian memorial in Six Bells, Abertillery.  This will include working with youth volunteers from Six Bells in setting up regular dance workshops in the village which will culminate in a showcase event at the Guardian statue in June 2012.

We are very excited to be working with the young people in order to enhance their community cultural experience through the medium of dance.

Easter Intensive with FFIN DANCE

FFIN DANCE once again hosts an Easter Intensive for professional dancers and those in professional training.  This will take place on 10th – 13th April 2012.
4 day intensive concentrating on performance skills and technique, the company will create a new piece of work to be showed at the Easter Dance Faktry Festival on the Friday evening.
As a company, we love meeting new dancers and dislike the more conventional audition process. This professional performance development course is not an audition, however in the past we have continued to work with dancers who have spent time with us on our intensive programmes, and consequently offered them places within our company.
Fee £60 Deposit £20
