SiD’s new short dance animations ‘Picture This’ will be premiered online on Friday 23rd October at 7.30pm on the SiD YouTube Channel.

Three dancemakers with disabilities have created the stories and choreography for these short dance animations. The stories reflect their lives, feelings and artistic voice. They have worked with animator Eugenia Hamilton to bring their work to life and to share their artistry on the screen with you.

Today we have a focus on Chris Henley’s animation. It is called ‘When I’m Dancing…’ where the dancer feels he can become so many things when he dances and most importantly, he feels when he dances he can be truly himself.

Don’t forget to set a reminder so you can watch the premiere on Friday, you can find a link to our YouTube channel in our bio.

We had a great morning dancing with members and staff of Clynfyw Care Farm as part of our residency in West Wales with Maynard.

We have been dancing with members and staff of Clynfyw care farm annually for quite a few years and the friendship, connections and dancing just gets stronger.

Huge thanks to the group for participating so fully, we had a ball, so much energy, laughter, sharing and some brilliant and soulful dancing..... the lunch was also yummy.

The SiD team were Rachel, Ray, Merv and Chloe working alongside Stirling, Holly and Simon from Maynard and My Moves plus all the Clynfyw gang.

We look forwards to dancing with everyone again.
