Story
Move Dance Feel unites women through dance. By offering creative, collaborative and joyful dance activity we provide much needed holistic support to women living with or beyond cancer, any cancer, including women caring for someone with cancer. As a physical and expressive art form, dance helps people to better manage, or navigate, the negative physical, mental, emotional and social side effects associated with cancer diagnosis and treatment.
Findings from our evaluations show that dance in this context increases participants' wellbeing and body confidence, alleviates feelings of stress and anxiety, helps women to feel more socially connected, reduces cancer related fatigue, and gives rise to many positive emotions. Participants say:
It makes me feel the absolute joy of being alive!
The emotional and mental shift I've felt through dancing is amazing. I feel my old confident self and far less anxious about the future.
It’s so wonderful. You make such a difference in my life.
Move Dance Feel is so important for helping me to live with the after effects of cancer.
Move Dance Feel activity is free of charge, to remove financial barriers to taking part, so any donation you can make is greatly appreciated as it enables us to continue offering activity - reaching more women who need our support.
