1
00:00:03,355 --> 00:00:05,361
We deliver Discover Dance sessions on tour

2
00:00:05,361 --> 00:00:07,080
it's a great way for young dancers,

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,391
families and schools to get a quick taste

4
00:00:09,391 --> 00:00:12,520
of what it's like being a dancer; and also

5
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:15,751
to get the experience of dancing on a stage with us.

6
00:00:15,751 --> 00:00:17,680
As part of a Discover Dance session

7
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:19,760
you get to see the Company do a sample class

8
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:21,840
either ballet or contemporary, as we would

9
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:23,120
do every day in the studio.

10
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:24,800
The young people get the chance to join

11
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:26,800
us on stage and try some of the warm up

12
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,271
exercises that we do.

13
00:00:28,271 --> 00:00:30,919
We also teach snippets of the pieces of dance

14
00:00:30,919 --> 00:00:32,880
that we tour around Wales, the UK and the world.

15
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,880
We then perform a short piece at the end

16
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,081
of the session with full lights, costume

17
00:00:37,081 --> 00:00:38,761
and sound, so they get the full 


18
00:00:38,761 --> 00:00:40,640
NDCWales experience.

19
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:42,880
After we have performed one of our pieces

20
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,120
we hold a question and answer session Q &A session

21
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,800
where the audience can ask us anything they want like.

22
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,800
We get some really interesting questions

23
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:51,400
ranging from 'Who was your inspiration

24
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,160
when you were dancing?' to

25
00:00:53,160 --> 00:00:54,990
'Have you ever fallen over on stage?'

26
00:00:54,990 --> 00:00:56,880
and its really nice for the young people

27
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,232
to ask and discover what it's really like for dancers

28
00:00:59,232 --> 00:01:01,040
and hopefully be inspired

29
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,480
to venture out on a dance journey themselves.

30
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,200
Discover Dance is a brilliant way for audience members

31
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,640
to experience dance in a different way,

32
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:14,240
not just a spectator but as a participant as well.

33
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,401
We'd love for you to come along and Discover Dance

34
00:01:16,401 --> 00:01:18,432
with National Dance Company Wales.
