We love when our online dance community meet in real life! Last month, Ruth and Marjorie, from Hamilton and Durham, met when they were both in T.O. seeing Don Quioxte at the @CanadianOpera. It just goes to show that real and meaningful connections are possible through Zoom!
If you tell us it's your birthday or wear an accessory to class, we will make an event of it! Recently, one of our dancers logged into the DDC with a jaunty cap. So everyone grabbed their hats and Paloma choreographed a spontaneous hat dance, much to the delight of participants!
What an incredible honour to share DWP's intergenerational work with @SusanHayGlobal from @globalnewsto as part of the "Making a Difference" series. Thank you, Susan, for your thoughtful care in telling DWP's story! youtu.be/MXBTRvSwvXk?si…
