YOU-DANCE “in-class” activities start officially in Italy!

October 18, 2024/0 Comments/in News, Noutati/by Tommaso Busini

You-Dance activities have officially started in Italy!

During these activities, dance, as a metalanguage, emotional and corporeal, capable of connecting people, will allow them to get to know each other, to express themselves and their emotions, to use their imagination, to stimulate reflection on themes and events, dialogue and confrontation, through the creation of movements and choreographies.

The specific objectives are the improvement of the individual’s sense of self-efficacy, the acquisition of social and relational skills expressed through the recognition of diversity as a value to be shared and the inclusion of youngsters through dance experience.

In addition, BorderlineDanza’s staff started administering the first questionnaires of the #youdance project during the first Activity 3 “face to face” meetings with two different groups/ classes. A total of 30 youngsters, our national target group in Italy (gathered from the counties of Naples and Salerno), answering surveys, reflected on themselves and their emotions by individually filling out their first questionnaire, which represents the starting point of the dance-based intervention that will continue for next meetings!

BorderlineDanza began the dance-based intervention (for project Activity 3) with weekly meetings of 2 hours each led by two dance-educators. In these first meetings, the intervention allowed the participants to make some move exercises focusing in particular on: the functional anatomy of the body, breathing for the mind/body connection, spinal mobility (head/body connection), mobility on the ground, movement in space and time!

Local youngsters started their “in-class” lessons and, with the help of the dance educators, they were also able to experiment the contact through some body games in pairs, based on movement and dance.

October YOU-DANCE Project Update: Key Actions and Upcoming Plans

We started with a review of project management (A1) and administrative issues, discussing timesheets, contracts, expenses and how to organize and implement it. We also focused on the upcoming reporting for both administrative tasks and communication & dissemination. Next, we summarized the actions completed for A2, including the 90 surveys conducted in each partner country and their translation into English. For Activity 3, each partner presented their progress on in-class dance activities, which are already underway. Teachers and dancers are using the “video tutorials” provided by BorderlineDanza, with clear instructions shared.
