ABOUT US

The Blair Academy is for adults and children in the UK facing social isolation and loneliness.

​

Our dance workshops are tailored to the varying needs of our participants in order to engage them in social activity and improve their overall well-being. 

​

We are centered on Hip Hop dance because of it's historic ability to engage those marginalised by society.

​

Both our work, and Hip Hop culture promote community cohesion, welcome difference, and celebrate individuality.
