As we wrap up our blues classes for 2025, we wanted to share our appreciation 💙

Earlier this year we took part in 𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴, and we’ve now published a short 𝗘𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 & 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 reflecting on what we learned and how it shaped our teaching, using feedback from the Blues Belfast dance community.

Huge thanks to everyone who danced with us this year and shared their thoughts. Your voices genuinely matter to us.
