Board Members AWA DANCE charity

The Charity AWA DANCE is looking for board members to join their Board of Trustees. There are currently two to three Trustee positions as 2024 will be a time of development, change and expansion for the Board.

AWA DANCE (Advancing Women's Aspirations with Dance) is a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) based in Birmingham, founded by choreographer Avatâra Ayuso. AWA DANCE is dedicated to the leadership development of women and teenage girls, using the transformative power of dance as the tool to empower their voices. AWA DANCE sits at the intersection of three areas: Dance + Leadership + Women & Girls’ issues.

We aim to produce change by offering our participants spaces to grow their leadership skills, with dance and leadership workshops, opportunites for women in dance and our Girls in Dance Festival. We consider ourselves a participant-led organisation: we gather data, we listen to feedback, take action and include our participants in the decision making process for our activities.

AWA DANCE was founded in February 2020 and its activities until recently developed online. We are a small and mighty team of four part-time freelancers and project volunteers. info@awadance.org
