Outline of the project

【1st year】
DanceSyndrome Dance Leader Program
LAND FES invited key members of DanceSyndrome, an organization in the UK that develops community dance programs for people with disabilities ,to Tokyo in order to lead a nine-day training program. This program enabled individuals with disabilities to collaborate with dance artists in designing and facilitating workshops. By introducing DanceSyndrome’s methods, the initiative promoted social participation for people with disabilities and created opportunities to develop dance facilitators in Japan, paving the way for implementing these practices domestically.
