DANZDancing During Isolation - a DANZ Resource
During the current situation with Covid-19 and New Zealand moving to level 4 alert, many people will be missing out on the physical and mental health benefits of dance in all its diversity. DANZ has been putting together a collection of FREE online dance resources that hopefully will keep you inspired to continue dancing at home during isolation. We will add to the list as we go - please feel free to email your own resources, or any that you are aware of to comms@danz.org.nz. Happy dancing and stay safe.
