MOVEMENT MENTORS- Dance, move, stretch, create and connect with people with disabilities! Bloom Wellness Collective (Bloom) is on a journey to make Dance and Expressive Arts accessible to those of all ages living with disabilities. We use movement as a catalyst for self-expression, connection, sustainable health, emotional regulation, and, above all, JOY!
We are seeking volunteers ages 15+ who are energetic, playful, and enthusiastic to participate as Movement Mentors in our Sessional Programs and Summer Camps. In this role, you will engage in movement, dance, music and/or art with others while connecting and supporting our participants with disabilities in a fun, inclusive environment. Mentors will receive training and hands-on guidance from our skilled facilitators to provide physical, behavioural and cognitive support to our participants. Each mentor is paired with a participant with whom they will build a connection and trusting relationship.
Movement Mentors will:
• Gain valuable work experience
• Engage in meaningful interactions
• Participate in heart-pumping exercises
• Create long lasting memories
• Leave each class with a FULL heart!
The ability to dance/move physically is a MUST! Comfort and previous experience supporting participants with disabilities is an asset, though not mandatory. Visit the Volunteer tab on our website: https://www.bloomwell.ca/pages/volunteer or email us at hello@bloomwell.ca for more information!
