And actively participate in. Our main focus is on inclusive dance, ensuring that individuals of all ages, abilities, and identities have the opportunity to express themselves through movement.

One of our unique offerings is our inclusive and wheelchair dance classes. We teach a variety of genres, including Latin and Ballroom, with adaptations and accommodations for wheelchair dancers. We have received training from World Para Dance, a leading organisation in wheelchair dance, to ensure that our instructors are equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to provide high-quality instruction.

At Impetus Dance, we are proud to be a LGBTQ+ friendly community. We believe that dance is for everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. We strive to create a safe and welcoming environment for all individuals to feel free to express themselves through dance.

We are committed to the growth and development of inclusive dance in Wales. That is why we work closely with Inclusive Dance UK, a national organisation dedicated to promoting inclusive dance across the country. We are also affiliated with UKEDC, the UK Equality Dance Council, and accredited by Disability Sport Wales, further showcasing our commitment to inclusivity.

Impetus Dance was founded in 2016 by Louise Bowman, a highly experienced dance teacher and registered occupational therapist. Louise's passion for dance and inclusivity led her to establish Impetus Dance, combining her professional knowledge and personal interests. She has over 20 years of experience in Latin and Ballroom dance and is a registered instructor with World Para Dance.

Louise firmly believes in the power of dance to promote social inclusion, self-expression, and movement. She recognises that dance not only improves physical health but also enhances mental well-being and promotes important life skills, such as independence and confidence.

At Impetus Dance, we believe in providing inclusive opportunities in dance for all individuals. Whether you are a seasoned dancer or trying it for the first time, we welcome you to join our community and discover the joy and benefits of dance.
