This aerial duo specialise in beautifully synchronised, creative dances on skills and in hoops, as well as through wire work and dance. Having trained together since the age of eight, Leyla Rees and Katie Hardwick “make an attractive, perfectly synchronised pair” in the words of The Stage.

Choreographed by Lee Griffiths, ‘The Movement’ is a company that produces abstract work by fusing the influences of hip hop and contemporary dance. Our work is centred around the versatility and power of our dancers’ individuality, passion and energy expressed through their dance theatre work.

Spinning Silks is a unique three-dimensional, rotating aerial dance. Created with the help of the Emma Insley Aerial Creation Fund Award, Starfiz has created an exciting new combination of synchronised and duo silks movements, woven inside a dramatic turning motion.

In Their Mother Matrix dark alliances form as the end of the world approaches and the fight to be the last person standing becomes an epic struggle where everyone fights for survival.
