Our Mission
To give young dancers from Wirral the opportunity of a lifetime – to take their talent, passion and dedication onto an international stage in Orlando.
The Dance Orlando Campaign is about more than performing at an NBA game. It is about creating life-changing opportunities, building confidence, inspiring ambition and showing our dancers that their dreams can reach far beyond the studio. Our mission is to support five talented dancers as they represent our dance community in Orlando, performing at a live televised NBA game, centre-court, at the Kia Center and experiencing an incredible cultural and educational journey along the way.
Through fundraising, sponsorship and community support, we aim to remove financial barriers and make this opportunity possible for every selected dancer. We want to give them the chance to perform, grow, experience a different culture and create memories that will stay with them for a lifetime.
Thank you to our official Dance Orlando partners and sponsors for the incredible support:

What would the Orlando experience give you?
It will allow me to train in a professional environment that is different to anything I have done before, this will give me the opportunity to work alongside professionals at a live televised event.
What is your why?
Dance has always been a part of my life since I was little and I can’t imagine my life without having the freedom to move the way I do. Exploring different styles and techniques is something I enjoy and I am constantly being inspired. I have made genuine friendships through dance and some of the best memories I have are with my dance family!
