Covering Liverpool, Wirral and surrounding areas, our passion is in engaging schools and communities in dance and other physical activities which have a focus on improving mental health and overall wellbeing. Shadow also offers a huge CPD program that has supported hundreds of staff to feel confident in delivering innovative and outstanding PE and dance lessons to their pupils.
We pride ourselves in our SEND specialised support and in supporting ‘non-dance’ teachers to feel confident in leading outstanding Dance lessons. We also offer a range of extra curricular classes, as well as our holiday courses, collaborative community projects and workshops.
