Foundation
Marina Studios Foundation is the new “front facing name” for Brighton Marina Studios, a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) founded in 2013 with aims to provide an extensive and quality timetable of classes to the entire dance community across the south east and to work hard to bring opportunities to people of all ages from difficult or deprived circumstances, who would not otherwise be able to access these activities.

Youth Empowered StreetDANCE
Y.E.S
Marina has been successful in securing funding from partners:
Active Sussex, Lottery Community Fund, Sport England, Arts Council England and Brighton & Hove City Council to deliver our “outreach” programme Y.E.S (Youth Empowered by StreetDance), targeting young people from deprived areas of the city and in particular those that are in-active and not engaged by traditional sport, physical activity and dance.
All of the above is only achievable with the wonderful support from volunteers, parents, community partners and fundraising activities. For which we are immensely grateful.
