If you are young and love to dance – or would love to try it out – then you are in luck, because L2R’s flagship dance program ‘Next Gen Wyndham’ is back

Coordinated through Wyndham council’s arts and Wyndham youth services programs, the sessions will run every Tuesday, from 4-5pm at the Wyndham Youth Resource Centre in Hoppers Crossing, until March 2.

The free dance classes are accessible for all young people aged 12-25 years, irrespective of gender, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, and dance ability.

Through dance, the sessions will endeavour to break down social barriers and inspire meaningful connections for children and young people.

The Next Gen Wyndham program serves as a platform for dancers and creatives to discover their rhythm, passion for music, dance and performance.

“The free dance classes/workshops feature a mix of hip hop, party dances, choreography and street dance styles, with a dance style for everyone to participate and learn.”

“It is a great way for young people to have some fun, meet others and learn dance moves and express themselves creatively.”

A safe, nurturing space for creativity, self-expression, confidence building and skills development will be provided, and it will be a great way for students to forge connections with their peers.

L2R Dance is a not-for-profit organisation based in Melbourne’s west dedicated to providing free dance programs, nurturing creativity and artistic talent through empowering young people through the power of dance.
