Chhaya collective Exeter Youth Dance
Youth Dance . Diverse . Intercultural . Interdisciplinary . Professional Training
It's really opened my eyes to contemporary, to different cultural influences and to use of your body ... I really can't condense it into words!
Willa Faulkner, EYDC 2015/16
Chhaya's Exeter Youth Dance Company was established in 2015 and provides an excellent opportunity for young dancers, aged 13 to 21 years, to develop their technical, creative and performance skills.
The company runs a weekly class at the Exeter Phoenix Dance Studio and strives to offer dancers an insight into the multidisciplinary, intercultural and diverse ways of working as a professional dance artist. The classes are primarily contemporary based, but dancers will engage with a range of styles, including Bollywood, Bharatanatyam, Kalari Payattu, African Forms, Social dances and Contact Partnering.
EYDC are regularly involved in film projects, live performances, site specific performance, curtain raisers for visiting companies and workshops from renowned professional artists.

Laura, EYDC 15/16
EYDC has taught me how to be more creative and understand my body when I dance.. |
It's been amazing, I feel like I have improved so much since I joined! |
I feel like I become lost in Kay's class and choreography. That’s what every dancer wants to be - LOST in dancing.
