"It was really beautiful and moving. Be very, very proud."  

"Thank you so much for being part of Bristol Open Stage on Sunday. It was a really evocative piece of work, which really added to the variety of arts seen in Showcase 1.  The feathers/flight sequence was particularly effective. The music choices were great, too."

"A massive well done! You did the city proud." 

“It makes me feel good, it gives me a workout, it has emotional content and it requires interaction with other dancers. All these benefits enable me to live with a little more ‘joie de vivre’ in my life.”

"I say about the dancing: it’s beautiful, it’s enigmatic, plenty of fun!"

"One thing I took from Shambala this year was remembering how to play – which is a wonderful thing. It was hitting the clowning workshop straight away that helped me throw off the 'self-consciousness and status anxiety', so... thanks!"

"I need this. When I came I felt a bit low and down but now it’s okay. I’m happy!"
