Our Dreams

NGARAN Goori dance group

Skills Development
Ngaran Goori strives to play a fundamental role in training prominent local Indigenous dancers and developing a modern Aboriginal dance style - the concept of Indigenous dance in Australia encompassing three distinct styles – traditional Aboriginal, traditional Torres Strait Islander and contemporary dance
Ipswich ATSI Community Members
Following funding, involving weekly training prograns it is envisaged that the Dance Troupe will gain additional exposure & experience through performances at festivals and community programs.
Continual Development through a recognised funding support
Ngaran Goori is dedicated to providing young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with opportunities to immerse themselves in and expand their knowledge of their culture. As part of our focus on developing cultural connections, we commenced an Aboriginal Dance Group soley structured on voluntees with no funding support.
The Aboriginal dance program involves young people learning about their culture and traditional dance routines. It also gives the young people the confidence to perform in front of their families, friends, community members and elders. The program is based on young people learning about culture but grew into our group having the confidence to get painted up and perform in front of an audience.
Young people learn new dance routines each week, but the troupe isn’t just about dancing. After each session staff and young people have a yarn and something to eat and drink and talk about how they thought today’s session went.
This opportunity gives young people the chance to perform at events such as NAIDOC week, Schools, Ipswich Community events and any other ceremonial events.
The initial program development has been a positive change in these young people’s lives as most of the young people were at risk of disconnecting with culture and community until they started coming to the program. Our young people have learned to respect each other, respect others and respect their culture.
