Creative Director of Foundation for Community Dance.

Foundation for Community Dance is the professional organisation for anyone involved in creating opportunities for people to experience and participate in dance.

The benefits of dance to a person's health and wellbeing have been recognised within community dance for many years. www.communitydance.org.uk/health is a growing and developing knowledge bank for you about many aspects of dance and the contribution it makes to health education, health care, teaching new ways to live, managing illness, and community development. In the light of the increased interest and profile of dance approaches to supporting people with Parkinson's Disease and dementia, we have included specific sections that recognise the growing interest in these fields. It is our intention as work in other clinical areas is developed to profile those areas as well.
