      The Northern Dance Network is proud to present the fifth edition of ASPiRE, a vibrant and uplifting showcase celebrating the joy of dance and the beauty of ageing. 

      ASPiRE is a unique and beloved event that proves we are never too old to dance.

      This inspiring show, created by seniors and for seniors, brings together a diverse and inclusive group of performers, most of whom are in their 70s, with others in their 60s and a few in their 80s. ASPiRE is not just a performance; it is a powerful demonstration of creative ageing, an active engagement in the arts that keeps the mind sharp, the body strong, and the spirit joyful.

      Featuring beloved groups such as Forever Young, SeniorsDANCE Company, Time to Dance, and Zimmers Dance Company, this year’s show promises a delightful mix of dance styles, each performance a testament to the resilience and passion of its dancers. 

      As these senior dance groups from around Tāmaki Makaurau take to the stage, they bring with them the joy of movement, the strength of community, and the message that dance is for everyone, at any age.

      The Northern Dance Network is honoured to be part of this year’s Tempo Dance Festival and gratefully acknowledges the support of Foundation North in bringing this cherished event to life.
