ACE 2026 · The 3rd Movement
How do you want to join?
Six days in October, and three ways in. The classes run first, the showcase sits on the Sunday, and the battle closes the week — take whichever suits you, or take all three.
Workshops · 14–17 October
Start with one class
You don't need any Afro dance behind you — that's what a camp is for. Nine classes across Ndombolo, Amapiano, Pantsula and Naija Fusion, and two of them start from the foundations rather than choreography, so there's an obvious way in. Take one, or take all nine.
Choose your classesFreestyle & Battle · 19 October
Freestyle first, battle after
It opens as a workshop: the judges start by explaining what they look for, so you're being taught before anyone is being scored. Beginners are welcome — if you've never freestyled in front of people, this is the room to try it in.
Available with four or more workshops, or if you came to a previous ACE.

You don't have to dance
Crews fusing styles, an item each from Tebza, Cori D and Yemi, then an open conversation with all three. Come to support someone you know, or come because you want to see it.
