Whether you've got dance experience or an as yet untapped yearning to explore your dance skills, this dance workshop led by by ex-US Marine Roman Baca and trained ballet dancer and West End Choreographer Lily Howkins is open to you.   

Connected to the acclaimed Soldier On play being performed at Sheffield City Hall alongside the Invictus UK Trials (22nd - 26th July 2019)  Roman Baca says,  "Soldier On is a play written by veterans and civilians that got together to do something creative and healing.  In a similar way, Lily and I have designed a workshop that brings veterans and civilians together to create choreography, share ideas, and move in ways that are new and fun."
