A powerful and emotionally charged contemporary dance work that explores the inner battles we all face—fear, doubt, resilience, and hope.

Through striking movement and compelling storytelling, the dancers of DAZL Youth Dance Company bring to life the journey of navigating life's emotional storms, revealing the strength that can be found in vulnerability and unity.

Choreographed by Kaci Emmonds and Ashleigh Pullen, The performance showcases the exceptional talent, dedication, and expression of DAZL's young performers.

Dazlyouth New work in progress

DAZL - Dance & Health Charity

🌍🍃 Creating Dance That Inspires Change 💚🎬

Our DAZL Youth Dance Company has been hard at work developing an exciting new contemporary dance production exploring the elements, climate change and the impact it has on our local wildlife.

Through movement, creativity and collaboration, our young people are using dance to raise awareness of some of the biggest challenges facing our planet. As they create this original work, they're developing not only their dance technique, but also confidence, teamwork, communication skills and a deeper understanding of the world around them.

This project doesn't stop at the stage... 👀

🎥 A brand-new dance film 🎙️ An inspiring podcast 💚 A powerful message for our community

..all coming this summer!

We can't wait to share this incredible journey and showcase the voices, ideas and creativity of our amazing young people. Watch this space – it's going to be something special! 🌎✨
