Daniel Daw


Daniel Daw was the 2006 recipient of the Dame Ruby Litchfield Scholarship (Performing Arts). The scholarship enabled Daniel to attend the CandoCo Dance Company Foundation Course in Dance, London, United Kingdom. Specifically for disabled students aiming to realise a career in dance, CandoCo Dance Company leads the way in professional integrated dance, and is known globally for its magnificent integrated teaching program and learning approach.

“As a disabled young artist, I am a deeply passionate member of the South Australian integrated arts community and am professionally committed to its further development.” Daniel Daw

Originally from Whyalla and participant of D’faces of Youth Arts, Daniel has recently completed a Bachelor of Creative Arts At Flinders University Drama Centre, he is currently undertaking Honours, and is in his fourth year as a dancer in Restless Dance Company.

“For people with a disability, access to technical dance training in Australia is extremely limited if not invisible. The Foundation Course will provide a platform for Daniel to extend not only his skill base but also his opportunities as a professional dancer and place him on the global stage” Kat Worth, Artistic Director, Restless Dance Company
