We meet on the second Friday each month. Monthly on Fridays | 12.30pm – 2.30pm Fri 13 Nov Fri 11 Dec If finances are a barrier please do talk to us. The Facilitators: Ruth Bell: Dance is a constant thread running throughout my life, emerging and remerging in many guises. I am a dancer, choreographer, filmmaker and passionate advocate of cross art collaboration. Much of my inspiration is drawn from the people I work with. I am rooted in Devon and would love to be part of a culturally vibrant dance art scene here in the South West. Jenny Pill: I have worked as a performer, a choreographer and a teacher. In the 2000s I ran my own Creative Arts company SussedArts and since then danced for many years with the Mexican Dance Company Bajo Luz. I am currently working as an independent dance artist in Devon, with a focus on filmmaking. I am the director of Exeter Dance International Film Festival. Dance fills my life with energy, challenge and joy. I love to explore emotional authenticity in myself and others whilst connecting with like-minded dance practitioners.
