A snapshot of our achievments in 2024/25

So far...

15 young dancers aged 13 - 29  worked together to perform Solar Eclipse to more than 3000 audience members as part of Light Up Lancaster. 

We successfully delivered three intensive creative holiday programmes for 48 young people aged 7-11. Which accumilated in two new dance videos created by the young people and two live sharings for an audience of 121

We delivered our new Solar programme at Morecambe Bay Primary School to 36 year 6 students. They created their own dance film exploring the fun that can be had by playing with and collecting renewable Solar Energy

811 individual Children and Young People took part in 80 Dance Sessions

We have mantained relationships with our dance artists and creatives who have fulfilled 16 contracts, including emerginging artists, early career and established artists. We mentored 5 young professionals over 3 projects to support their continued development in facilitation, choreography and performance

Over 27 performances, 621 Children and Young People performed to 3367 audience members in schools, on stage and outdoors

We created 5 opportunties for young professionals to collaborate with Ludus on 'Solar Eclipse', a light art dance installation for Light Up Lancaster. They received mentoring from ludus to choreograph using solar powered technology 

We joined Arts4us project, a £2.5M AHRC funded project in collaboration with intergrated care systems and community organisations. It focuses on mental health of young people aged 9-13, a group at significant risk of developing mental health problems whilst transitioning from childhood to adolescence

We begin to look towards a year of celebrative activity as Ludus Dance turns 50 in 2025...stay tuned!
