Young Amici are an integrated disabled and non-disabled contemporary dance group based in West London at the Lyric Hammersmith. To find out more about the group, visit the Amici website or get in touch with their producer Kelly – kelly@turtlekeyarts.org.uk.

During lockdown, Young Amici met twice weekly online to keep active and creative together. As a group and individually, members of Young Amici filmed sections of their piece ‘We Dance into the Forest’ to bring together as a celebration to stay creative whilst apart.

The original version of ‘We Dance into the Forest’ was first premiered in 2019 at the Mile End Arts Pavilion. It was inspired by shapes and landscapes of nature and commissioned to be shown in an art gallery setting.
