Directory & Networks
In September 2024 Parable Dance launched The Inclusive Dance Directory.
This national platform is dedicated to uniting inclusive dance artists and companies. You can stay informed with a fortnightly newsletter, packed with the latest opportunities as well as contribute your news, resources and biographies to enrich the community.
Join us in connecting the dots...
Our intention for starting this frequent networking meeting for experienced inclusive dance artists, was to stay connected, share opportunities, and feel less isolated as we came out of the pandemic. Now that we're all busy again, we have altered the format. The Cuppa Catch Up group will now have an annual networking event with hosts presenting a relevant topic. If you would like to join the email list for this group, please get in touch info@parabledance.co.uk
Network for Emerging Inclusive Dancers (NEID)
Are you interested in inclusive dance but not sure where to start? Do you need support and signposting to opportunities? Do you want to connect with others interested in this area of work? Join the Network for Emerging Inclusive Dancers (NEID). It is FREE to join, and includes presentations from established inclusive dance artists from around the UK. NEID is best suited for dancers in England, but we welcome those from throughout the UK. NEID was made possible using public funding by Arts Council England.
Feel free to attend meetings when you can, it is not necessary to attend every one. The Network meetings generally take place on the last Tuesday, every other month. The next meetings will take place on:
- Tuesday 24th September 2024, 4-5pm – Guest speaker Joe Powell-Main - BOOK NOW
- Tuesday 26th November 2024, 4-5pm – Guest speaker Louise Wildish, Head of Inclusion at People Dancing - BOOK NOW
- Tuesday 28th January 2025, 4-5pm – Guest speaker tbc
Email info@parabledance.co.uk for more information or to register your interest. Once on our contact list, you will be sent booking details for each meeting.
I feel grateful to have met such a warm, knowledgeable and generous network of freelancers working across the UK.
