Idea: Dance Club for the young

 

What it's all about

I have a G.C.S.E in dance and would like to open a Dance Youth Club for the Summer situated in South Wales.

What's needed to make it a reality

Helping hand on how to go about opening one and also some encouragement to get it started.

Fans of this idea

    Welcome to Junction49! Great to hear that you want to put your recently learnt skills to good use with people younger than you

    Do you have contact with any local youth centres or schools that might let you use a space they have to run your dance club?

    If not then you could try:
    Gorseinon Youth Network Centre
    rear Of Gorseinon Junior School, Pontarddulais Rd, Gorseinon, Swansea, West Glamorgan SA4 4FE
    Tel: 01792 892179

    or:
    Llanelli Centre Project Ltd
    2 Station Rd, Llanelli, SA15 1AB
    Tel: 01554 771595
    llanellicentre@tiscali.co.uk

    or you could contact your local schools...

    a few things you'll need to think about:
    - what age range do you want the people who come to the sessions to be?
    - where will you find the young people?
    - do you need someone over 18 years old to be at the sessions - and if so they need to be cleared to work with young people (they need a CRB check - don't worry any youth worker at a youth centre or teacher will have one!)
    - how many sessions do you want to run, how often and for how long each time?

    Junction49 is here to help you turn your idea into a reality so let us know how else we can help...good luck with getting started
