What is the Street Team?

The Street Team is a group of people supporting The Body People at community events, activations and outdoor appearances.

That might look like:

• joining our dance set

• bringing energy and encouraging the public to get involved

• meeting at the studio and travelling together

• handing out flyers

• helping with set-up and pack-down

• supporting the stall throughout the day

• demonstrating aerial moves with our aerial instructors guiding you through, at events where we bring apparatus

Whether you want to be front and centre or helping behind the scenes, we’d love to hear from you.

Ways to get involved

Dance Set Participants:

Join us in bringing the energy through movement. We’re looking for people who want to be part of the dancehall set, help create a buzz and encourage others to join in. You’ll be following our dance instructors as they guide you through fun, accessible choreographies - to Dancehall, Soca, Afrobeats and Hip hop. Sets will be between 20 - 30 mins and no experience is needed. Some of you will know and love these choreos from the Dancehall and Zumba classes you’ve attended with The Body People - so it’ll just be like joining your weekly classes with us - with the addition of doing it in the fresh air, getting others at the event who don’t already know us - to join in with these easy to follow steps.

Aerial Demo Participants:

For selected events where we’ll have aerial equipment, we’re looking for people who can demo aerial moves while our teachers lead tasters and guide participants. Basically what you already love doing in your favourite aerial classes - come and do them on our portable rigs in the fresh air! Our instructors will be right beside you like they are in the studio - but you’ll have eager onlookers watching and cheering you on. It’ll feel a bit like a special performance but you’ll simply be doing movements and sequences that your comfortable with, as opposed to having to remember a choreo - while our instructors explain what you’re doing, to the other event attendees. Depending on the head count - each participant will demo with breaks for approximately 10 - 15 mins.

Stall, Set-Up & Support Team:

We may also need support with setting up, managing and packing down the stall, keeping things running smoothly and helping represent The Body People throughout the day.

Flyer Team:

Help us spread the word by doing the laps! Handing out leaflets and letting people know who we are, what we do and where they can find us.

Vibe Bringers & Crowd Hype:

If you’re confident, friendly and love connecting with people, this role is about helping create an inviting atmosphere and encouraging passersby to engage with us.

Travel Crew:

For those who want to meet at the studio and head to events together. A good option if you’d feel better arriving as part of the team, bond with us and the rest of the Street Team and help build the energy from the start.

Who we’re looking for

We’re looking for people who are:

• warm, reliable and community-minded

• up for bringing good energy

• happy to support in a hands-on way

• aligned with The Body People’s vibe and values

• excited to be part of something visible, joyful and growing

You don’t need to do everything. You can express interest in one role or several.

Why join us?

This is a chance to:

• represent The Body People out in the community

• be part of live events and activations

• connect with the team and wider community

• help us grow our visibility and impact

• share movement, joy and real energy with the public
