Leeds is the biggest city for dance outside London. You’ll find diverse dance organisations here, such as:
One Dance UK
We are also a proud member of One Dance UK, a national support organisation for the dance sector that offers dance resources and expert advice for dance practitioners.
The university's partnership with One Dance UK enabled choreographer and graduate of our postgraduate choreography course, Shambik Ghose, to visit Leeds School of Arts. Shambik worked collaboratively with our students on his project, Conversing with the Crow. Watch the video of Shambik working with our students further up this page, and visit the One Dance website to read about the project.
