Exim Dance Company CIC – COVID -19 (CORONAVIRUS) Response Programme

 

In light of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and following Government and Public Health England advice, Exim Dance Company CIC are currently working digitally and remotely. It is vital for Exim Dance to remain providing a service to young people and adults we usually work with in areas of deprivation in Plymouth. We have ensured our virtual programme has remained on the same days and times to keep some sense of normality and routine in place. The prerecorded and live sessions are uploaded to all Exim Dance social media platforms being:

Additionally to the virtual programme, Exim Dance are offering wellbeing resource packs that can be emailed or a postal service for those that require it.  Exim Dance are also providing group and 121 wellbeing check ins for those most at risk young people we work with.

‘As a dance artist working in the South West I’ve hugely benefited from these classes, not only as a practitioner but also as a participant. It was such a positive moment for me mentally to be invited to work on the classes at a time where almost all my other work was being cancelled, as well as valuable financial support. Exim created a regular class that I could attend without any financial pressure. Having access to free classes over this uncertain period has been a lifeline to me whilst on lockdown – it’s given me structure, connection with the local dance scene, and allowed me to continue training to support my career in dance.’
Daisy Harrison – South West Dance Artist
