I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for supporting us to reach 10 years! It is such a fantastic milestone, and could not have happened without the support and belief from you all.
When I started the company in 2013, I had no idea what Artistry Youth Dance would turn out to be, so I’m truly proud of what we have created and honoured to have worked with so many talented young people over the years. It’s always exciting to see the journeys that the dancers have gone on to since their time with us.
Over the 10 years, we have provided opportunities for over 1500 young dancers through our youth dance company, workshops, projects, and events, and we look forward to supporting even more in the future. We continue to remain committed to supporting the next generation of black dance artists and nurturing a richer and more culturally diverse dance community in the UK.
I must thank my wonderful Artistry Youth Dance team, Esme and Destiny, our talented dancers and teachers for their fantastic work, as well as my family and friends for their tireless support. A huge thank you to our extended freelance team, parents & carers, choreographers, mentors, advisors, creatives, arts organisations, funders, donors, studios, venues, partners, supporters, and audiences near and far.
It has been a wonderful journey, and I look forward to celebrating with you soon. Here’s to many more exciting years ahead!
