THE COMPANY

Eleni is the community dance development organisation for Denbighshire, Flintshire and Wrexham in north east Wales. The company is based at Deeside Leisure Centre, Flintshire and the core team comprises the Artistic Director, an Administrator and a Dance Practitioner and Project Coordinator. Dance activities are carried out by a team of professional dance practitioners.

 

Eleni is a registered charity revenue funded by the Arts Council of Wales and receives additional funding from the three local authorities of Denbighshire, Flintshire and Wrexham.

 

Eleni’s activity consists of a range of classes and workshops in different dance styles and targeted projects for all ages and abilities in both schools and communities.

 

Eleni activities take place over a geographical area stretching from the coastal area of north Flintshire, to densely populated parts of Wrexham and rural areas of Denbighshire. 

 

The company works with, amongst many types of groups, hard to reach young people, special needs children and adults, mature people, more technically advanced young dancers who may progress onto professional training, and both Welsh and English medium groups.

 

Eleni has gained a reputation for excellence and has achieved great success in encouraging people of all ages and abilities to get up and dance for the first time; in empowering dance participants to perform alongside professional dance companies; and establishing and growing a dance audience throughout north east Wales.
