RCM Club Meeting BusyFeet

Presenter: Lyle Chasemore

Rotary Chadstone East Malvern

BusyFeet Stonnington – Chair

BusyFeet is a dance and movement activity for children with intellectual and physical disabilities, aged 6 to16 years. The participants will experience happiness, and develop more self confidence, through the movement of dance.

BusyFeet is another local project of The Rotary Club of Chadstone / East Malvern. The dance group meets weekly during the school term and caters for disabilities ranging from various degrees of autism, Down Syndrome, profoundly deaf and cerebral palsy. The extreme differences in abilities and concentration levels pose particular challenges for the teachers and the volunteers. As confidence from both sides continues to grow these difficulties are progressively being overcome.
