Foundation Launch New Dance & Cheerleading Sessions, With Open Night Coming Up

The Hull FC Foundation have launched a new schedule of dance and cheerleading sessions.

Community News

The Hull FC Community Foundation have launched a new schedule for their Dance & Cheerleading sessions starting later this month, with an open night coming up for potential new participants.

The schedule, which includes specific sessions for both dance and cheerleading, are designed for children aged between 7 and 16, with separate age groups across the sessions.

Sessions will be delivered by experienced staff with a wealth of experience delivering dance and cheerleading sessions, helping to develop flexibility, balance, strength, technique and control, allowing children to explore and perform dance using a range of movement patterns. 

Sessions will lead to participants performing at Hull FC home games at the MKM Stadium, compete in cheerleading/dance competitions and perform in dance shows. Plus, many more exciting opportunities. 

Cheerleading sessions will be fun-filled, and packed with all the different elements involved within the sport. These classes will involve tumbling, jumping, stunting and dance, while working on our skills to put routines together to use on game days and eventually at competitions across the country. 

Dance sessions meanwhile will be working towards developing our skills within pom dance, street dance and contemporary dance. All the routines will be put in an end of the year show for family and friends to attend to watch and some dances may be used at the Hull FC Home Games. 

There will also be additional sessions specifically aimed at pre-match and half-time performance at Hull FC fixtures, with pre-match focusing on dance, and half-time focused on cheerleading. These sessions are designed for all ages to take part.

Sessions are set to start on Monday 4th October, with an open night taking place on Thursday 23rd September (5.00pm start) at the Hull FC Centre of Excellence (off Pickering Road), allowing those interested in taking part the chance to come along and find out more about the sessions.
