Dance

What is dance?
Street Dance, in particular, appeals to both genders and is inclusive in its nature to be varied to suit every need of the participant. No equipment/kit/desired space is required to take part, only a space big enough for the participants to move and dance safely.
The UDOIT Dance Foundation, a national partner of Sport England, has provided a link to the School Games for local dance festivals to qualify and be part of the National Schools Dance Championships.
