Discover a world of dance

RISE Youth Dance provide high quality dance training in an inclusive, nurturing and safe environment for young people aged 2-25 years in the Bristol area. We have a foundation of contemporary dance, and explore different world styles including carnival soca.

Our four main groups – RISE Juniors (6-12yrs), Horison (12-16yrs), RISE Core (13-18yrs), Performance Group (16yrs+) are currently working together online via live zoom and prerecorded classes and are very much looking forward to returning to the studio when lockdown restrictions are lifted.

Throughout the last year we have been learning new ways to interact and dance together. RISE produced our very first online dance screening ‘Reaching Out’ showcasing a selection of films made by each of the groups accompanied by original music the young dancers created with sound designer Tom Hudson.

This term we are welcoming local artists and RISE Alumni to teach workshops online, providing support to those artists in this difficult time, and to ensure our classes are fresh and exciting for our dancers.
