What We Do

We are an arts charity that works with dance professionals and people across the region to make the South East a thriving home for dance.

We support dance artists that specialise in all forms, from breakdancing to ballroom, with funding, tailored advice and networking opportunities throughout their careers. As passionate believers in the health and wellbeing benefits of dance, we also work hard to bring movement to as many people as possible too – particularly those who might not have had the opportunity or the confidence to give it a go before.

In 2022 we opened The Dance Space to the public. Located in the heart of Brighton & Hove, our state of the art dance studio and community hub has been over a decade in the planning and making and we are so excited to welcome every body inside..
