This inclusive dance troupe has a little bit of everything. There are both children and adults here.
According to Inspire More, all members of the troupe have physical or mental disabilities and features of a different order.
And they all study at the school, the head of which is Suzanne Alcon. Students can practice gymnastics and various dance styles, such as jazz or hip-hop.
Alcon told Inspire More that her students have more than just a love for dance. Many make dance their life’s work.
The group was visibly nervous as they waited for their turn, but when the music started, everyone saw grace, composure and strength.
The girls moved so smoothly that they seemed to float above the stage, and the young people were the personification of strength.
Each dance sequence was perceived by the judges with reverence, and the audience was forced to freeze with delight.
Upon learning that the troupe was also from Cadiz, Judge Paz Padilla said that she was happy to
be from the same city with such wonderful people, and that she was proud of her place of birth.
Judge Edurn described the ‘chemistry’ between the dancers as a ‘family bond’. Judge Risto Mejide, who is often compared to Simon Kovel,
was the most moved. Mechide said that he believes that inclusion should be in art, and that art without it is nothing.
Speaking about achieving such inclusion, Mechide mentioned that ‘the day will come when an actor with Down syndrome will no longer be news in cinema.
Of course, all the judges said yes. We have no doubt that Flick Flock Danza will become a crowd favorite on the next tours and even after the show.
While inclusion, which is increasingly breaking through barriers and becoming an integral part of the success of troupes like Flick Flock Danza,
the real inspiration in this situation is the dedication of the participants, regardless of their
physical condition, their dedication to art and the desire to give the world such chic performances.
