Dance
Dance enables you to develop socially whilst promoting creativity, fitness and well-being. As you become a performer, you'll also develop your confidence, self-esteem and team working skills.
Dance can involve hours of practice to develop the physical and technical skills to learn and perform a piece. This positive and determined mind set will be useful in all jobs!
Many dancers go into the performing arts, media, health and well-being such as yoga or Pilates teaching or other 'people jobs' such as tourism.
