'Dance for All' Community Care Inclusive Dance Scheme Introduction
Artistic Advisor: Andy Wong Ting-lam
Andy Wong Ting-lam graduated from the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts in 1990, majoring in ballet. He later studied modern dance in New York and joined the Hong Kong Ballet and later the City Contemporary Dance Company. In 1995, he re-established 'DanceArt HK' with a focus on developing modern dance and promoting dance education. He is also the founder of various dance groups, including 'Dancing Heart Troupe', 'DancingAngels', 'Music Soulmates', and dance group for seniors 'Dance up'. Wong has received the Dance Year Award from the Hong Kong Dance Alliance twice and was honored with the 'Outstanding Individual in Cultural and Arts Promotion' award by the Home Affairs Bureau in 2006. In 2007, he received the 'Arts Achievement Award' from the Hong Kong Arts Development Council, and in 2012, he was presented with the 'Chief Executive's Commendation for Community Service' by the Hong Kong SAR Government. Wong has extensive experience in teaching dance to individuals with different abilities and possesses a wealth of experience in stage performances, choreography, dance teaching, and artistic training.
To show care for senior citizens, people with different abilities and other communities in need, the LCSD has introduced the Community Care Series which offers a vast range of recreational, sports and cultural activities and facilities.
