PICTURE: TREVOR ADAMS / MATRIXPICTURES.CO.UK PLEASE CREDIT ALL USES WORLD RIGHTS Strictly head judge Shirley Ballas brings her love of dancing to school pupils. Love of dance: Children from Corpus Christi Primary School in Brixton are pictured with Strictly head judge Shirley Ballas and the ISTD’s Ginny Brown, Richard Still and Malcolm Hill, and headteacher Jean Connery. Pupils got the treat of a lifetime when Strictly head judge Shirley Ballas waltzed into school to share some dance moves as part of a national campaign to boost well-being by getting more youngsters dancing. The Queen of Latin spent the morning at Corpus Christi Primary School in Brixton to show how schools could improve their pupils’ physical, mental, and emotional well-being by offering dance lessons as part of their PE and extra-curricular activities. Shirley is supporting the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD) campaign – Find Your Dance Space – which is encouraging people to find their love of dance. The dance legend, who is a member of the ISTD, is eager to see more schools offer dance classes, so taught the children a short routine to demonstrate how much fun it can be. “Dance is a wonderful outlet that enables people to connect and express themselves, and I feel passionately that more children should have the opportunity to experience and enjoy it,” said Shirley. “Dance is inclusive – everybody can take part, regardless of their age, gender, ability or fitness level – schools can provide that link to enable children to dance. “The benefits are enormous for our well-being. It’s a wonderful way to socialise and forge friendships, and reduce loneliness, and is a great addition to traditional sports lessons. If schools were to bring in a trained teacher to offer safe, structured dance lessons, I think pupils and the school would reap the rewards immediately.” During the dance session, Shirley partnered with the ISTD’s Richard Still and Malcolm Hi
