together we move

Together We Move is a celebration of York Dance Space and the beautiful community that has grown through dance.

Community dance is at the heart of what we do and the evening will be a collection of works, past and present, created in collaboration with the people who perform them.

These dances have been inspired by the writing of Matthew Harper Hardcastle (Next Door But One). Through conversations with many of our participants, Matt gathered stories, reflections, and memories, exploring what dance means to them: how it feels, what it makes possible, and the ways it has shaped their lives.

The result is a tapestry of movement, words, and shared experience.

Ten years ago, we opened this space to share our passion for movement and our belief in a different way of practising and experiencing dance—one that is open, inclusive, and for everyone.

We believe that the joy, connection, and transformative power of dance should be accessible to all. That belief was at the heart of York Dance Space then, and it remains at the heart of everything we do today.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey and to all of you who continue to choose to dance with us. Your energy, creativity, and commitment have shaped this community and made it what it is today and we are looking forward to celebrating that with you.
