Cameron Ball, Artistic Director of MÓTUS Dance, said:
“The diversity of those working in dance education in Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire is vast, but what binds us is our love of dance and its positive influence on young people. Feedback tells us that dance educators often work in siloed settings and enjoy opportunities to connect with like minded people and enhance their practice. We look forward to welcoming a wide range of practitioners to the MK Dance Educators Network to share knowledge and enhance and expand their work.”
