Karen Bartholomew

Teacher
Practitioner / Facilitator

I am a freelance dance artist that specialises in working with young people and adults with a physical and/or learning disability. I teach for organisations such as Yorkshire Dance, Kirklees Culture and Leisure Services and Mind the Gap Theatre Company.  I also run MeshDance with my colleague Mia Nielsen.  MeshDance is an inclusive professional contemporary dance company for performers who are both disabled and non-disabled.  We also have a youth dance company called Me2, which is also inclusive and caters for all young people aged from 11-24 years old.

Most of my teaching practice takes place in the community, but I am also interested in working within education and other settings.
