Rise

RISE Youth Dance offers high-quality dance training in a welcoming, inclusive, and safe environment for children and young people aged 6–19 across the Bristol area.Our vision is for every child and young person to become the best version of themselves.At RISE, we believe in the transformative power of dance—not just to train bodies, but to build confidence, creativity, and joy. We nurture both technical skill and individual expression, helping each dancer understand their body and grow in self-belief. When our dancers feel happy and supported, they’re able to perform at their highest level—and that’s what truly makes them shine.Today we’re proud to showcase a selection of work created throughout the year, blending a range of contemporary dance styles, some with a vibrant Caribbean influence.Our young dancers will perform pieces they have been taught, as well as work they’ve helped shape creatively. At RISE, we believe in offering rich, varied experiences in dance encouraging young people to explore, express, and discover what moves them.Each contemporary piece carries its own unique theme, developed through collaborations with different teachers. These thoughtful works build towards our high-energy, Caribbean inspired group routines, bringing everything together in a celebration of rhythm, individuality, and joy.
