Tressell Training MTV Dance Project
The Tressell Training MTV dance project involved 3 weeks work with 2 young women from the Tressell E2E provision, devising and developing a dance project to be taught and filmed at the end of August.

During the final week, they were joined by 3 young women from
  the Tressell TAP 11 project.

The delivery phase of the project was a 2 day course attended by 28 pupils from St Leonards CE School.

The course culminated in the shooting of a video which was shown in the school in September.
Elphinstone School Gifted & Talented (Spring 05)   Dance Summer School

Ian Fuller, Dance Worker, took a group of 12 young people: 6 boys and 6 girls and used a Machines topic to create work that built focus, control and non-verbal communication.

The group were very hard working and enthusiastic and, despite snow and half term, managed an excellent performance to Key Stage 2 pupils and their parents.

  Two half day dance workshops were run during the summer holidays, involving a group of 24 young people.

The first group juxtaposed 2 dance pieces about flight, whilst the second group, working with a visual art tutor, created a breathtaking session that crackled with creative electricity.

This resulted in a final sharing session and performance.

The final performance was shot on digital video and copies given to all the pupils.

  The Tressell Street dance project visited Silverdale School recently and taught an excellent workshop to a group of Yr 4 students.

The session was videoed and is currently being edited for release.
