Excellence comes in all forms. The heart, root and centre of the School is its dance technical training. Rambert School is a registered charity.

The full title of the School is Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance, with the terms “Ballet” and “Contemporary” listed in this order because it is alphabetical. At Rambert School both these major genres of western theatrical dance are treated equally and as major studies. Neither is undertaken largely or only to supplement the other. This approach, which is unique in the UK, is adopted

Huge congratulations to Postgraduate Javier Bustamante whose documentary And Yet We Dance has been published by the Dance Studies Association, Dance Studies Association ❤️‍🔥

And Yet We Dance is a documentary exploring how dance endures in places where artistic practice is often overlooked. Set in Ciudad Juárez, a Mexican border city shaped by industrialisation and social violence, it brings together the voices of local dancers whose stories reveal both the challenges and possibilities of creating amidst adversity. Through conversation and performance, the documentary expands beyond its local context to ask universal questions about identity, belonging, artistic resilience and the necessity of creating. Ultimately, the shared experiences of the featured artists, unveil how dance is not merely a profession or an art form, but dancers’ most powerful way of inhabiting the world.

Javier’s work was supported by Rambert School throughout his time on the MA in Dance Research and post graduation.

‘This achievement would simply not have been possible without your support and the opportunity to study at the Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance. My time at Rambert has profoundly shaped both my artistic and academic journey, and this documentary is a direct result of the experiences, knowledge, and encouragement I received there.’
