Make & Move Workshops

Dancers will start off this creative workshop with face painting, choosing fun and imaginative designs to spark their inner performer. Next, they’ll get hands-on crafting an exciting theatrical prop or costume accessory—something unique to enhance their character.

With their new look or prop in hand, our Juniors will step into our expressive and creative dance workshops, where we explore a variety of dance genres through playful movement, storytelling, and imagination. Our Intermediate dance students will enjoy a lyrical Contemporary workshop.

It’s a fun-filled experience that brings together art, costume, and dance—encouraging confidence, creativity, and a love of performance!

‘The Weight of Air: Movements for the Unspoken’ 

Next Gen Movers

This is an evocative new project for young adults (18+), presented by Albany Contemporary Dance and Albany Youth Support Association. Through the language of contemporary dance, participants will be guided to explore mental health, not just in words—but in movement, feeling, and shared creation. Each session offers space to warm the body, stir the imagination, and shape personal stories into powerful choreography. With costume-making woven into the process—drawing on textures, colours, and reclaimed materials—every gesture and garment becomes part of the narrative. No experience is needed, only openness. Supported by a youth worker and led by dance artist Sym, this is a space to move, to make, and to be seen—where movement speaks what words cannot.
