Women Who Dance

Women Who Dance | Emily Jenkins
Haarlem

Women Who Dance is a new project Emily has launched in order to serve women in Haarlem - where she lives. It combines her love of dance and live drumming, and aims to create a community of passionate and confident local dancers.

Women Who Dance aims to build connection and enable (physical and mental) expansion - resulting in a more creative and confident community of local dancers. We focus on flow, release and joy!

Grounded in contemporary dance and rhythmic explorations, this dance weekend is designed to awaken the senses and cultivate a feeling of aliveness - supported by a live female drummer.

Emily works inclusively, welcoming all women - exactly as you are - and people who identify as women. No prior dance experience is necessary.

If you have any questions, or want to find out more, please get in touch.
