Mature Movers

Tuesdays | 11.30am-12.30pm | Aimed at over 60’s 

Mature Movers is a welcoming dance class aimed at adults aged 60+, open to all abilities and experience levels. Through creative movement, gentle dance exercises and a variety of music and dance styles, participants will improve mobility, coordination and confidence while enjoying the many physical and mental benefits of movement. 

With a focus on enjoyment rather than perfection, this friendly and inclusive class offers a relaxed, supportive and sociable space to stay active, express yourself and connect with others through dance. 

What participants say…

“I most enjoy the activity with friends in a safe and enjoyable environment. Being supported to move out of my comfort zone and perform on stage, which had never thought I would be able to do” 

“Amazing group, found myself smiling all the way through! Great for wellbeing”
