Welcome to Dancing Recall
Daphne Cushnie, a neurological physiotherapist and community dance practitioner and Susie Tate, a specialist dance in education and health practitioner, developed Dancing Recall to provide enjoyment and exercise for people living with dementia.
Dancing Recall’s NHS award winning programme offers dance and movement classes for people living with dementia and their care-givers. The classes are safe, structured and great fun, leading participants through dances that are designed to foster greater control and ease of movement, stimulate positive memories and a sense of belonging. A wide range of colourful equipment is used, alongside story and song to create a sense of familiarity and place. All these elements together create a joyful experience for everyone involved.
