A THRIVE Event

We want you to Move with THRIVE and this time it's for a Commercial Pop Dance Class, facilitated by Danceworks, suitable for beginners and complete newbies!

Every Thursday at 5pm we're giving you a reason to get moving, with a session led by experts, where you'll leave feeling good both inside and out.

All THRIVE events and activities are set up to align with the PERMA model of positive psychology and are designed to meet at least TWO of the model's five core elements of wellbeing: Positive Emotions; Engagement; Relationships; Meaning; and Accomplishment.

Here's how this activity meets the model:

POSITIVE EMOTIONS

Music and movement are a recipe for creating feelings of joy. This class may also give you a degree of new found confidence and even euphoria!

ENGAGEMENT

As you learn the moves and feel the music, you'll be focused throughout the class. By the end, you'll have a routine that you've been able to learn in just an hour. It's an exercise for both your body and your mind.

RELATIONSHIPS

Not only will you be dancing along side the other attendees, but you'll be a rapport with your dance teacher and will have a chance to bond through a shared mission and activity. Because you'll be focusing on movement, there's no pressure to talk, but a look over to your slightly out of breath comrade is enough of a conversation to create a connection.

ACCOMPLISHMENT

Whether you perform each step perfectly or not, you've come out learning something new. This class will create satisfaction and maybe even motivation to attend another! By the end of the hour, you've truly accomplished something and built on a skill.
