What is 'Radiates'?
Colours of Dance Radiates is a creative dance programme offered to children who have experienced bigger challenges in their lives. This might include, but is not limited to children with neuro-diversities, disease, disabilities or Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) such as family adjustments.
We are currently running two classes at Castle School, led both by our highly experienced team of teachers and by our inspiring students who bring ideas, invention and courage to class every week.
