Inclusive Dance Day in Bruges
07.02.26 Inspiration Day Inclusion in Motion – featuring the powerful #danceisblind project.
With dance as a universal language, we work together to build a warm, accessible, and inclusive leisure culture. Inclusion in sport and leisure is a powerful way to connect people and create opportunities for everyone.
After a first successful edition in Ghent (East Flanders), we are organizing “Inclusion in Motion” once again — this time as a full inspiration day on Saturday, February 7, 2026, in Bruges (West Flanders), at the Sport Vlaanderen complex.
During this day, we share knowledge, inspire participants, and provide concrete and practical tools to make leisure and sports activities accessible to all. The day is interactive and energetic, with a strong focus on social accessibility. Theory and practice are connected through personal sports experiences, achievements, and the voices of people with lived experience. Inclusion is central as a people-centered, warm, and well-founded story.
This edition is content-wise strengthened by the non-profit organization Symfoon, which shares its expertise in inclusion and support for people with disabilities.
