Through our Keep Moving With Care programme, Moving Together deliver engaging, accessible dance sessions designed specifically for older adults living in retirement, residential and care settings across the East Midlands.Our sessions combine music, movement, creativity and conversation to support residents’ physical wellbeing, confidence, social connection and enjoyment.
​
Sessions are designed to:
-
Encourage gentle movement
-
Support mobility and flexibility
-
Stimulate memory and conversation
-
Boost confidence and mood
-
Encourage social interaction
-
Support participation for a wide range of abilities
Our Keep Moving With Care programme has been designed with the needs of the residents in mind. We start with a gentle warm up to wake up the body and increase range of movement. Then followed by themed repetitive dances where we encourage everyone to join in. We then give the opportunity for the residents to use their bodies creatively and explore different ways of moving. The session ends with a cool down where we use gentle stretches to slow down the body.
​
Each session will explore a different theme so we can provide varied classes, allowing the participants to engage with a range of music and movement. Themes such as ‘Dancing Through The Decades’ and ‘Music Icons’ will be paired with props and music to create a fun and creative session.

We offer flexible delivery patterns including:
