2025 is well underway for Belfast Boys who closed last Friday's AHRC Critical Dance Pedagogy Network event @QUBelfast. With an energetic & fun-filled performance from the boys, there was no better way to showcase the power and joy of dance! 🙏@aoifepea for inviting us along.

Not long now until our annual 🌟Day of Dance🌟 @CrescentArts. It's always a magical opportunity for all our youth engagement groups to share what they have been working on with family & friends, to dance together and - of course - enjoy a festival treats or two!

One member said: “Since being a part of this group I’ve gotten many opportunities I normally would never get, I became way more confident, I made many new friends and have become more sociable. Overall, I just love dancing and I would never want to lose all of that.”

👍 It's a massive thumbs up for @BBCCiN from all the past, and current, members of Sutemos and Suteminis. Being involved in this intercultural youth engagement programme has been really valuable for many young people who live in or around Dungannon, Northern Ireland.

Thank you @BBCCiN from SUTEMOS in Dungannon. 'Sutemos' is the Lithuanian word for 'twilight' - a magical time for reflection. The dance performances by these young people do not just tell stories, but also explore how when two things meet, wonderful new possibilities open up.😊
