Spend two days with Grace Murdoch creating an original piece of work, starting each day with a technique class and then exploring creative tasks and set material.

This two day dance workshop is open to new and current dance students in school years 7 - 13.

Over the two days the dancers will collaborate, ending in an informal sharing at the end. This unique opportunity is a great chance to have an intensive experience of making a piece of work, developing technical and collaborative skills in the wonderful AMATA studios at Falmouth University’s Penryn Campus. The intensive embodies the work we do throughout the year in our range of dance classes, the intensives are a fun way to spend a jam-packed weekend, creating something unique to that group.

As a professional Director, Choreographer and Dancer Grace’s previous work includes working with organisations such as Falmouth University, The Minack, ICON Theatre, Trebah Gardens, Cornwall Council to name a few. She is currently an associate artist with Hall for Cornwall and also artistic director of physical Theatre Company Cheap Date.

Dance Intensive cost:

  • £80 per person (includes a dance intensive t-shirt)
