Aims of ConfiDance For Life
The association's objects are
- Firstly, the advancement of health by development of self-esteem, self-confidence and positive body image through dance
- Secondly, to make dance accessible to a range of people who would gain most from its therapeutic benefits and those who would have difficulty, for a variety of reasons, accessing such opportunities.
In the short term we are in the process of establishing a bellydance project, C U Shimmy aimed at girls and young women aged between 12 and 25 years. This project will act as an early intervention for those at risk of developing or increasing mental health difficulties
Once the initial project is established, we hope to develop more projects, expanding into other dance forms such as Street Dance, Bollywood and Capoeira and to include others who would benefit, such as
- Young men with mental health difficulties
- Cancer survivors
- Victims of domestic abuse
- Respite for carers
- Young people and adults with Special Needs
. We would also like to provide a variety of complementary therapies such as reiki or aromatherapy.
