"In terms of social and personal level, I saw and met people from all over the world - I built strong friendships and shared experiences. I improved my level of English and more. Erasmus was the best gift I could have given myself, it was a school of life and an experience that everyone should live.
To the future Erasmids - Do not think about it! Dare!"-Themida.
"This project was such a powerful and exciting experience. To be able to meet so many people from different countries, get to know them, learn about different cultures, share and support each other is something magical. We learnt new things, we exchanged and we shared our love for music and dance. No matter the dance experience, the background or each one’s personal characteristics we were there as one to learn from each other, support and express ourselves through movement. Wish I could go back because one week wasn’t enough! I will always remember our first dance activity. Groups, according only to music preferences, creating something together to share with the rest of us. The cheers, the support, the fun, that first time expressing yourself in front of the group was thrilling and so much fun! So don’t lose the opportunity to jump on the next project you come across!"-Dafni.
"The program was constructive and very interesting. It was a beautiful experience as I
learned how to work in a team with people from different countries and cultures. Through activities we saw in detail the concepts of the inclusion of exclusion as well as discrimination. A special moment for me was when we danced in groups and expressed these concepts through various movements and emotions. I also liked the fact that we all danced together in the end, wanting to support and give strength to the Ukrainian people. At the end, I believe that this program has helped to reduce
discrimination of all kinds."-Kristi.
"The project «Dance for everybody» was my first program. I went to Vilanova de Arousa for a week. I was so excited the time I arrived and this excitement held till the end. To start with, I met wonderful people with humor, good energy and I learned from them. It was easier to conform. First two days was about theory for inclusion, exclusion, discrimination. I must say that I felt it was more theory than practical and I would like to do some dance, not only talking. Next days, we practiced our choreographies for the Final Show. My expectations were a little bit different but I enjoyed the whole part. I would never change this experience."-Kyriaki.
"Dance for everybody was a beautifully eventful project that will stay in our hearts dearly. Both people with experience in dancing and people with no experience united, cooperated and created something beautiful for everyone.
The creative process of multiple choreographies, some guided by our wonderful trainer and some created by our teams, included sharing of ideas, individual and group expression and great teamwork. It was interesting and fascinating to see the results of our combination of ideas put into practice in final choreos which apart from letting us enjoy ourselves through dancing, also let us represent different kinds and meanings of social inclusion/exclusion.
The amazing place of the venue was quite inspiring for most of us, as we had the company of the sea, nature and beautiful sunsets. Moreover, through not only our discussions and sessions, but also through our multiple experiences and issues we gained an insight into what social inclusion and exclusion is, and that it can take uncountable forms. The peak of this experience for me was the final performance of our choreographies in the city's plaza, an intense and unforgettable event!"-Anna.
The project "Dance For Everybody" was co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union.
