EMPATHY
IN EDUCATION
By embodying a narrative through dance, we quite literally ‘step into’ another’s world, navigating its unfamiliar terrain in ways that encourage a deep connection with the self, and others.
Human understanding through art.
Our innovative and playful movement methods are a fantastic approach to exploring our humanness. We deliberately carve space for the learner to notice and navigate their felt responses to a story or idea, encouraging curiosity and compassion for our own, and each other's, evolving emotional landscapes.
Our participation sessions are rooted in this process of self enquiry, fostering an in-the-moment awareness of where in the body a feeling or emotion exists, and the stories we might carry with it.
We find this holistic approach to making, both a great starting point for new creativity and a route to authentic artistic expression.
Building a sense of community through shared experience is also important to us. Our sessions combine guided, improvised group work alongside focused tasks, where the challenge of the creative work is part of the joy.
Sessions are always built around a duty-of-care to the learner, ensuring everyone feels safe, with equal opportunities to feel heard in the space.
