✨ We are honoured and deeply grateful to for recognising Black in the Ballroom as finalists in three categories at the UK Dance Awards 2026.
• Excellence in Inclusive Dance Practice
• Community Impact Award
• Inspirational Leadership in Dance (for our founder)
To be acknowledged alongside so many inspiring individuals, studios and organisations across the UK dance community is truly humbling.
Black in the Ballroom was created with a vision of making Ballroom and Latin American dance more inclusive, accessible, and representative. Every class taught, every conversation started, every dancer welcomed into our community has been part of a collective effort to create meaningful change. These nominations are a reflection of the incredible people who have supported, championed, and believed in that mission so far.
Thank you to our students, families, partners, supporters, volunteers, and the wider community. Your encouragement, trust, and commitment continue to inspire us every day.
Thank you, , for this recognition and for celebrating the power of dance to connect, inspire, and transform lives.
🤍🤎🖤
