WEBVTT

00:00:03.355 --> 00:00:05.361
We deliver Discover Dance sessions on tour

00:00:05.361 --> 00:00:07.080
it's a great way for young dancers,

00:00:07.080 --> 00:00:09.391
families and schools to get a quick taste

00:00:09.391 --> 00:00:12.520
of what it's like being a dancer; and also

00:00:12.520 --> 00:00:15.751
to get the experience of dancing on a stage with us.

00:00:15.751 --> 00:00:17.680
As part of a Discover Dance session

00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:19.760
you get to see the Company do a sample class

00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:21.840
either ballet or contemporary, as we would

00:00:21.840 --> 00:00:23.120
do every day in the studio.

00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:24.800
The young people get the chance to join

00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:26.800
us on stage and try some of the warm up

00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:28.271
exercises that we do.

00:00:28.271 --> 00:00:30.919
We also teach snippets of the pieces of dance

00:00:30.919 --> 00:00:32.880
that we tour around Wales, the UK and the world.

00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:34.880
We then perform a short piece at the end

00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:37.081
of the session with full lights, costume

00:00:37.081 --> 00:00:38.761
and sound, so they get the full 


00:00:38.761 --> 00:00:40.640
NDCWales experience.

00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:42.880
After we have performed one of our pieces

00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:45.120
we hold a question and answer session Q &A session

00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:47.800
where the audience can ask us anything they want like.

00:00:47.800 --> 00:00:49.800
We get some really interesting questions

00:00:49.800 --> 00:00:51.400
ranging from 'Who was your inspiration

00:00:51.400 --> 00:00:53.160
when you were dancing?' to

00:00:53.160 --> 00:00:54.990
'Have you ever fallen over on stage?'

00:00:54.990 --> 00:00:56.880
and its really nice for the young people

00:00:56.880 --> 00:00:59.232
to ask and discover what it's really like for dancers

00:00:59.232 --> 00:01:01.040
and hopefully be inspired

00:01:01.040 --> 00:01:04.480
to venture out on a dance journey themselves.

00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:07.200
Discover Dance is a brilliant way for audience members

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:09.640
to experience dance in a different way,

00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:14.240
not just a spectator but as a participant as well.

00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:16.401
We'd love for you to come along and Discover Dance

00:01:16.401 --> 00:01:18.432
with National Dance Company Wales.
