"We strive to support people of all ages and abilities to access dance. Our participants engage for enjoyment or social reasons, to improve physical and emotional wellbeing or to further their career in dance. In Aberdeen, Citymoves and its cultural partners are often the reason participants and audience members journey into the city centre. Cultural activity in our city centre is key to maintaining the ecology of cities. Not only in the buildings we inhabit and open to the public, but in the fabric of the city we walk around.”
-Hayley Durward, CEO of Citymoves Dance Agency
