WELCOME TOMATHS DANCE

‘I like it because in the classroom

we only sit down and write and it’s

boring, but here we got to move

around all the time!’

In our experience, schools that

embrace the arts are confident,

lively, engaging and creative

places. We work closely with

staff to design and plan projects

– big or small – that answer the

needs of children and the school,

bringing our maths and dance

expertise to inspire students and

teachers and enrich learning.

02

SCHOOLS

Maths Dance is passionate about embodied maths teaching and learning and we like

nothing better than to share what we know, and what we’re currently exploring. Our

courses and workshops are popular, effective and affordable. We collaborate with the

Association of Teachers of Mathematics and The Place.

‘Very clear and imaginative yet

simple exercises!’

‘An excellent workshop that

engaged and entertained us.

Highly recommended for all maths

specialists.’
