Early Years Workshops: BUG and ROLL 8 - 10 Mar 2024
As spring arrives and nature is waking up again, explore the green, green grass and all its wriggling inhabitants in this dance and movement workshop inspired by nature for children aged 2-4 with dance artist Monica Muñoz.
This workshop includes imaginative play and a range of movements, from rolling on the grass to finding tickling spiders and jumping as high as a grasshopper. Little ones and their grown-ups are invited to travel round the space, flying like beautiful butterflies!
All accompanied by great music and beats from around the world.
