“I can express my feelings, let everything come out": Danny volunteers with dance charity

Congratulations to Danny who has been teaching dance classes for an inclusive arts charity and making a difference.

Danny lives in a house in north London, where he gets support from LDN London. LDN’s team have supported him to follow his love for dance, and help others to enjoy dancing too.

Danny has volunteered at Blink Dance Theatre, where he has helped at sessions for people with learning disabilities and sensory needs. Blink Dance Theatre is an inclusive dance organisation, who run workshops for people with disabilities and make dance accessible.

He has helped the leader of the workshops, Georgia, to come up with ideas and support participants.

Danny says that dancing is a way for him to let his emotions out: “I can express my feelings, let everything come out.”

Georgia said she has loved working with Danny: “Danny shows up to every week with enthusiasm, loads of passion for performing, and is playful with the participants.”

“He is sensitive to when someone might need a bit of support. Danny also brings lots of outside inspirations as well, which I think the group really benefits from.”

There are usually around 5 to 10 people taking part in each dance class. The group recently put on a performance at a local family fun day, which Danny helped choreograph.

Congratulations on this fantastic achievement Danny!
