We are excited to announce 2 x bursaries for our Generate programme.

We are looking for enthusiastic, passionate young dancers aged 10+ years who want to challenge themselves to reach their full potential in dance. Generate trains every Wednesday during term time, from 4.30 – 6.30pm via Zoom with a cohort of fantastic teachers, who are all still working in the professional industry.
