BBC Storyworks: Freedom in Movement

Graded for Untangled.video

Quentin Mogwai grew up in the suburbs of Paris where dance became a needed escape. But as his passion turned into competition, he found himself disconnected from the very movement that once set him free. Science of Movement is a workshop built on the simple idea that there is no right or wrong way to move. Held beneath a Paris bridge, sessions help dancers to loosen up, laugh together and connect without the pressure of being a good dancer. This is one of many grassroots organisations supported by Laureus Sport for Good Cities in Paris which is part of a global network across more than 40 countries. Built on the belief that movement can help tackle isolation, poor mental health, and exclusion at the community level, Quentin’s story is about what happens when people are able to move freely, together.
