Adults & Older People image
Akademi works with adults and older people developing their creativity, flexibility and movement through classical dance, music and storytelling. It also allows for improved wellbeing and social output.
Akademi has recently completed an action pilot research and development project investigating best models of dance and movement-based programmes for older adults. Through a grant from Arts Council England, London, artists Amina Khayyam and Joan Pires worked with older adults at the Bengali Worker's Association (Camden) and Nexos Latinoamericanos Dance Company and Acton Community Forum (Ealing). To hear more about our work please contact education@akademi.co.uk; 0207 6912 3210
Akademi would like to thank The Baring Foundation for supporting Akademi to develop Akademi's practice in this important field.
