Ascension Dance is the creation of Ashley Jordan and Ben Morley, two Coventry born and raised dancers with a passion for getting young people moving and engaged in activities.

As young people, both Ashley and Ben were very active, taking part in dance classes as well as other activities such as physical theatre, trampolining, gymnastics and parkour. 

Now older and feeling privileged to have such unique opportunities throughout their teenage years, Ascension Dance are now committed to providing the same high quality sports/movement opportunities for the next generation of young people within the city through their Pop-Up Parkour sessions.

Ascension Dance were supported by Positive Youth Foundation and West Midlands Police to provide the equipment needed to run these sessions and were supported by Coventry City Council to delivery these sessions outdoors in Coventry City Centre as part of Sports Fest.

They spent 6 days outside, delivering Parkour and movement session to over 300 children and young people.

Big thank you to the Sports fest and EnV team for being delightful in supporting our activity. It was great to be able to give so many young people the opportunity to experience Parkour.

We would highly recommend the support of EnV for any future events.

Big thank you to Dave Boughey for his support of our work and for providing us with a platform to meet and engage with the local people of Coventry.
