Lead with Adventure

Goal: Embark on a 2-day city adventure to explore various dance styles and cultures, enhancing teamwork, resilience, and cultural awareness through dance workshops, performances, and urban exploration. 

Mode of travel: Foot and Public Transit 

Environment: Urban 

Route idea: Start by visiting a contemporary dance studio for a workshop, followed by a picnic lunch in a park. Next, head to a cultural dance center for a traditional dance workshop, then break and navigate to a hip-hop dance workshop at an urban studio. Finish your day at your accommodation, cook your dinner, and rest up for the next day. On the second day, participate in a morning stretching session in a park, then join an open-air dance class or community event. Visit a historic dance landmark or museum, have lunch at a cultural food market, and embark on an urban dance scavenger hunt. Prepare a final group performance, perform it in a public space, and end with a wrap-up reflection session before heading home. 

Preparation idea: Research city locations offering dance workshops and cultural dance experiences. Learn about different dance styles and their cultural significance through online resources or local classes. Plan your transportation routes and ensure parental/guardian supervision or approval for the journey. 

Review idea: Journal about each day’s experiences, noting favorite moments and lessons learned. Share highlights with friends and family through social media or a group chat. Set personal goals for further involvement in dance and cultural activities, such as joining a dance club, attending more dance events, or organizing a dance workshop at school.
