1. Does my child need previous dance or filmmaking experience?

Not at all! Cycle 1 is open to all levels. Whether your child is an experienced dancer, interested in filmmaking or simply enjoys being creative, our programme offers a welcoming and supportive environment where everyone can develop their skills and confidence.

​

2. What will my child do during the 10-Week Programme?

Members will explore dance training, choreography, creative storytelling and performance for camera. They'll collaborate on original ideas, take part in workshops with professional guest artists and work towards producing their own dance films, culminating in a special theatre premiere.

​

3. When and where does the programme take place?

SDC Motion Collective will launch in January 2027 at Sackville School, East Grinstead. Sessions take place on Sundays from 10am-12pm across a 10-Week programme cycle, with a separate film premiere at Chequer Mead Theatre.

4. What will my child gain from SDC Motion Collective?

Beyond developing dance and creative skills, members will build confidence, independence, teamwork, and communication skills. Through collaboration, choreography, and filmmaking, they'll discover their artistic voice, make new friendships and experience the achievement of seeing their original work brought to life.

5. What makes SDC Motion Collective different from a traditional dance class?

SDC Motion Collective goes beyond learning routines. Members become part of the creative process, developing their own ideas, exploring choreography, collaborating with others and discovering how dance translates to film. With professional guest artists, creative mentorship and a final theatre premiere, every cycle offers a unique journey from studio to screen
