Our youth companies are a project for young dancers with a passion for hip hop who want to explore performance and theatre. They aim to push talented young people to gain more skills in terms of ability, technique and confidence to perform.

​

Our younger company, the Groundbreakers (formerly the Mini Jackers), is for dancers aged around 10-15 years, while our older company, Out of The Box (formerly Jackin' the Box), has dancers aged 14-20 years old. We hold roughly annual auditions to join the companies, which anyone can apply to, and occasionally promising dancers are invited to audition for the company at other times.

​

The companies have regularly performed at prominent events and theatre nights, including IgniteBreakin' Convention (2017) and Breakin' Rules (2018, 2017), at the Active Schools Dance Extravaganza (2018), Leith Festival (2022, 2019), the Scottish Parliament's 20th Birthday Celebration, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and many more!
