AWA DANCE is offering an online session of Safeguarding in Dance training Level 2, held by expert dance educationalist Sam LeBihan.
The course will equip you with the knowledge and skills needed by dance teachers, studio owners, choreographers and project leaders to understand safeguarding within a dance setting including recognising and responding to issues, building a safe organisational culture and information sharing. This advice will be guided by relevant legislation and guidance.
The training is a practitioner-led, sector-specific course shaped by 30+ years of professional dance and education experience. The session is built for real dance settings and it's interactive, with opportunities to ask questions and explore specific dance safeguarding examples.
The course is ideal whether you have never completed a safeguarding training before or if you need to refresh your knowledge (which should be updated every 2-3 years!). It's also a great tool to build confidence if you still feel unsure on how to manage safeguarding concerns in your day-to-day practice.
A section of the training will focus specifically on working with girls and women, understanding what risks they may face across a range of dance genres and settings, and discussing what safeguarding measures should be in place to protect them from harm within a fast-evolving dance scene.
