U.Dance
What is U.Dance?
U.Dance is a national programme of events offering high quality dance opportunities to young people, presented by One Dance UK. Each year, our nation’s young dancers can explore their creativity, learn more about dance careers, and experience the thrill and sense of achievement of performing!
One Dance UK and partner organisations work to present an exciting dance festival programme for young people aged 11 to 19 (and disabled young people up to the age of 25).
U.Dance, at Regional Platform and National Festival level, offers an incredible opportunity to be part of showcases demonstrating the breadth of youth dance choreography and performance, and where possible will offer workshops and industry insight with leading dance professionals.
One Dance UK and partner organisations aim to present youth dance that is high quality, innovative and ambitious. Each year groups from a variety of settings are welcomed to take part, including; school and college groups, youth dance companies, private dance schools and individuals.
