Participants in the Accessible Dance program

Accessible Arts promotes the accessibility of dance in NSW and supports inclusive dance practice, to improve and promote opportunities for people with disability to express their creativity through dance.

Dance initiatives seek to:

  • Build awareness in the arts and disability sectors
  • Inform debate in the field of inclusive dance
  • Support the teaching of dance to groups including ‘bodies of difference’ in mainstream classes
  • Support the Australia Council’s Dance Plan 2012, in “taking the artform into new territory through exciting collaborations.
  • Support the National Arts and Disability Strategy’s goal to “strengthen pathways into the creative sector.”

“If you can breathe, you can dance.”
