Read what one of the members has written about her experience dancing for the seniors.

“On many occasions over the years, we have been asked to dance at nursing homes, care facilities and senior residences. One soon learns that the joy of music and dance in your life forever stays in the heart. I have seen elders that have left their physical and mental trials behind, swaying in their wheelchairs, eyes closed and sometimes singing the song of memory while we dance. Others, with smiles on their faces, tapping their toes, clapping hands, have related to me their memories of dancing in their youth. It is said that music has a strong emotional power, I feel so fortunate to be able, along with my fellow dance friends, to share this pleasure and to spark long-term memory. It is always a humbling experience.” Donna Mutlow 22/3/2021
