Since 2023, Esplanade’s beloved dance platform, da:ns festival, has transformed into da:ns focus, an exciting year-round season of five themed weekends of distinct focuses. Some of the da:ns focus weekends are accompanied by introductory dance workshops, Footwork, for all ages!

We have specially curated five sessions of Footwork for the Open category, focusing on flamenco (18 Jan, Sat), contemporary dance (19 Jan, Sun) and ballet (1 & 2 Mar, Sat & Sun). These one-and-a-half-hour sessions will be a great introduction for youths and adults to the creative expression of dance.

The Footwork platform consists of introductory dance workshops for all ages:

• Adults & Preschoolers (3 – 6 years old)

• Adults & Kids (6 – 8 years old)

• Just Kids (8 – 12 years old)

• Open (13 years old and up)
