Send us Fan MailDancing with profound deafness, Ceroc accessibility and dance community are at the heart of this episode of the Dance Inspiration Podcast.Liz chats with Becky, a new dancer at Ceroc Derby who is profoundly deaf and has recently completed a beginners workshop and joined the weekly class.Becky shares what it is really like learning Ceroc when you cannot hear music in the usual way, how lip reading and visual teaching help, how she experiences rhythm, and what dancers and teachers can do to make classes more accessible.We also talk about the possibility of using Bluetooth technology with the DJ equipment so Becky can connect more directly with the music and teaching, and why simple conversations about individual needs can make such a difference.This is a warm and practical conversation about dance, inclusion, confidence and community, and about making sure more people feel able to step onto the dance floor.Support the showWhether you’re new to dancing or simply love a good story about trying something new, each episode will leave you smilingDANCE | COMMUNITY | WELLBEING | CONFIDENCE | CONNECTION
