SCHOOL INCURSION PROGRAMS

Our School Incursion Programs enable your students’ to do just this.

At La Vérité Dance Projects we enhance a child’s education through dance, movement and community involvement. 

Our programs help students’ to gain confidence, social skills, improve fitness and encourage greater self-discovery through movement. 

Experience real-world concepts through dance.

Our ‘Dance as an Experience’ incursions focus on students learning through dance. Students explore real-world concepts through dance as they feel, create and express themselves through movement. (Enquire for more information on themes).

Explore dance choreography and how to perform to an audience.

Our ‘Dance as a Performance’ incursions focus on students learning how to dance effectively when performing for an audience. By working with their peers to embody a sequence of movements, students develop their capacity to perform on stage with confidence and expression.

In these incursions students learn a creative piece of choreography that can then be performed to the school community! It’s ideally suited for schools to use as a performance at assemblies, events, Wakakirri competitions or EOY concerts

Explore dance styles and build technique!

Our ‘Dance as a Discipline’ incursions focus on students learning about the discipline of dance from a technical and historical perspective. As students practice the technique of a dance style, they gain an understanding of both the technical movements involved in dance styles, its foundations, and the fundamentals that go into safe dance practice.

What dance styles are explored in our Incursion Programs?

Our programs explore ballet, contemporary, hip hop, musical theatre, dance strength and mindful movement practices, with each program offering various levels of difficulty based on each student’s past dance experience.

Who leads the program?

LVDPs dance incursions are led by Stephanie Georges, supported by our fully qualified LVDP staff. Stephanie is the Creative Director of LVDP, and also has a Masters in Creative Arts Therapy from The MIECAT Institute.

By combining our training and experience in education, dance and creative arts therapy, LVDPs dance incursions draw on movement concepts that are age-appropriate, whilst also promoting greater awareness and wellbeing.

All Incursions Program staff have a valid Working With Children Check, First Aid & CPR training.

Why La Vérité Dance Projects?

LVDP is a collaborative creative arts company that teaches the technique and discipline of dance, whilst creating a platform for self-discovery and development.

Our name, La Vérité, is derived from the French word meaning ‘the truth’.

We teach, perform and connect through dance because we recognise its potential to explore and comprehend the truth about ourselves. Ultimately, we want to be good to dance and to do good with dance, because when nurtured correctly, it can do incredible things.

Through our School Incursions Program we aim to: 

• Increase students’ social development by connecting them to their community.
• Allow students to learn about dance, to dance, and through dance as a process of meaning making.
• Develop students’ balance, coordination, strength, stamina and grace.
• Offer students a platform to develop their creative expression and self-discovery.
