About this event

Do you work long hours?

Do you need an energy boost at the end of your day?

Do you struggle to be active after you have left work?

Yes to all, i hear you say. I'm happy to announce that SS Dance & Wellbeing is working on site at Huddersfield Royal Infirmary to give staff access to dance fitness after a normal working day.

It has been highlighted that one of the biggest reasons for people not taking part in regular physical activity is due to longer working hours. Having a healthy mind in the workplace is very important; It is known that stress can affect physical wellbeing as well as work and home life. Taking part in this class after work may help to combat the factors causing stress at work and can help to reduce the risk of significant mental health issues in the future, as well as give you greater day to day satisfaction.

Active Workplace Fitness is a combination of medium - high impact dance routines; a great, fun way to "dance yourself fit". This class will keep you on your toes and give you the energy boost that you need after working allday in a high stress environment. The fusion of different dance styles means that you get a variety of benefits, from fitness and endurance to flexibility and mobility, to strength and toning, anything and everything involved in this class is a way to improve your body, health and overall well-being.

Street Dance, Aerobics, Zumba and Sophie's own unique dance styles are used in each session to create routines that alternate between fast-paced and slow paced. This makes #ActiveWorkplaceFitness a fun and uncomplicated way to learn dance moves and means you need relatively little dance skills.

Nobody cares if you have two left feet or if you are uncoordinated, I just want you to feel comfortable to move freely (no judgement), sing along to the music and get lost in the moment.

The cost per session is £5 - booking is essential.

To inspire people’s wellbeing, confidence and happiness through dance. 

It’s no secret that people’s physical and mental health are so closely linked. It’s also no secret that getting together with others to learn something new builds confidence, creates enjoyment and helps overcome feelings of isolation and loneliness. This is what dance can do. 

For many people, dance might seem out of their reach. It might be too expensive, it might be too far away, it might feel too intimidating. It doesn’t have to be this way. SS Dance & Wellbeing brings the inspiration of dance to you and your community. As a social venture we are committed to making sure dancing can be enjoyed by those who would feel the wonderful benefits and positivity of movement.
