๐ง ๐ Mental Health Awareness Day ๐๐ง
Dance has always been a safe space for many of us - A place where we can express, heal and connect with eachother and ourselves. For a lot of us, Dance is therapy.
We are so proud to be apart of a supportive & ever-growing dance community that continuously remind us that we never have to face our struggles alone๐ซ
UDO & Other Organisations within the Dance Community all have one goal which involves creating a safe space for everyone to express themselves freelyโค๏ธ๐ซถ
Letโs continue to lift each other up, check in with loved ones, and take time to care for ourselves - mind, body and soul the way we know bestโฆThrough Dance!๐
If youโre feeling overwhelmed or just need someone to talk to, remember thereโs always help๐ ๐ป ๐ฑ
Weโre all in it together this #MentalHealthAwarenessDay ๐ฟ
