BP Boys
Reuben, our Co-Director, grew up dancing in multiple Boys Dance Groups across Berkshire and Hampshire, such as Explosive and Nuclear Boys Company at Trinity School in Newbury, as well as WISE Boys Dance Company through Corn Exchange Newbury. He was also a part of Zoielogic Dance Theatre’s FuzzyLogic Male Youth Dance Company for 10 years!
He had many opportunities to perform at various youth dance platforms across the country such as U Dance National Festival, BBC Dance Passion, ManMade and many, many more.
Our Original BP Boys leader, Sarah, took part in an apprenticeship scheme with The Dance Movement to deliver boys dance projects in 2017. Following the close of TDM, Sarah continued the legacy of the boys dance programme and now unites the classes with Boogie Pumps.
BP boys aimed to inspire lads to dance, with weekly classes hosted by two secondary schools, and online Zoom classes throughout 2020. Classes focus on performance, fitness, contemporary dance techniques and improvisation.
Performance credits include:
- Christ’s College Annual Festivals
- Weydon Dance Festival
- Dance in the Meadow 2019
- Dance Woking, Boys Dance Platform 2020
Reuben now aspires to bring the legacy of Boogie Pumps Boys to Bracknell and continue to use all of his teaching experience and passion for getting men and boys dancing to build a community where boys can engage with Performing Arts.
