Dance belongs here.
Tees Valley’s flagship community charity for dance
Making high-quality dance part of everyday life - across Middlesbrough, Redcar and East Cleveland, Stockton-on-Tees, Darlington and Hartlepool.
What we do.
TeesDance brings people together through care-led, community-driven dance. We create high-quality opportunities to take part, clear routes to go further, and paid work for local artists — building a stronger dance ecology across the Tees Valley.
We do this through four interconnected areas of work:
More young people and artists can develop, progress and build futures in dance without having to leave.
People experience real, measurable improvements in how they feel about themselves.
People feel more socially connected and less isolated.
More people who face barriers can experience high-quality dance locally.
“TeesDance creates space for people to connect, express themselves and feel like they belong“
