Enriching Lives Through Dance

WHO WE ARE

We are a charity that believes in enriching lives through dance. As a long-established organisation, we specialise in supporting the artform through personal engagement, inclusive dance opportunities, talent development, and professional artist support locally, regionally, and globally.

We believe people come first. Everyone, regardless of age, background, gender, or creed, should have access to and enjoy the richness of art and culture in their lives. We also value having fun, we love what we do, and we want others to feel inspired to join in too.

We believe everyone should have the freedom to follow their dreams, no matter how big or small. We see our role as a supporter and guide, helping people pursue the path they wish to follow.

We’re not afraid to take bold steps because embracing new ideas keeps the arts vibrant, relevant, and full of life. Our aim is to support people in leading lives filled with enriching experiences, exciting encounters, and dreams fulfilled through dance.

WHAT WE DO

Each year, thousands of people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities take part in our wide range of dance classes, projects, performances, and events.

We provide opportunities for children and adults to learn how to create and perform dance, from joyful community sessions to advanced training.

We take dance out into schools and into our local communities. We work in areas of high disadvantage and low engagement. We work to support and give guidance to talented dancers and professional artists. We show-case professional and non-professional dance performances.

For many, dance with us is a fun and social way to improve health and well-being. For others, it’s the first step toward a professional career in dance.
