Company Detail |
|
Springs Dance Company began as a fellowship group in 1979 within the ACG which is the Arts Centre Group. From the ACG an informal group called LEAP was formed. This group, as Christian artists, danced simply as a witness of faith. The group were mostly students and as the majority regularly worshipped at St Helen’s church, Bishopsgate, they decided to move there. As the students became professional, so did the group and Springs Dance Company was born, co-founded by Martin H Blogg (a senior lecturer at the Middlesex Polytechnic) and Angela Hardcastle (a choreographer and lecturer in dance). The company encouraged people through performances and workshops to use dance as a way of worshipping God. |
