A fun, creative dance camp for young people at YMCA Taunton.
Looking for an exciting half-term activity that gets children moving, building confidence and trying something new? YMCA Taunton is proud to host a high-energy dance camp led by professional dancer Tom Cherrie (aka @cinnamonstickz).
Taking place on Wednesday 27 May, this half-day camp introduces young people to the culture, history and creativity of breaking (breakdancing) in a welcoming and supportive environment.
What is Breaking Boundaries?
Breaking Boundaries is much more than just a dance class. Throughout the day, participants will:
-- Learn the foundations of breaking
-- Explore the history and culture behind the dance
-- Enjoy music, movement, creative play, video inspiration and relaxed chill time

No dance experience is needed. Complete beginners are very welcome. This camp is designed as a fun introduction and a chance to try breaking before regular weekly sessions begin in June.
