WE ARE IMPELO

We are a small but mighty arts CIO with a reputation for a socially engaged, inventive, and ambitious approach, redefining community dance and arts in a rural context. Through partnerships, community practice, participants, and audiences, we introduce fresh, exciting perspectives on dance across generations and reach those most in need—whether isolated from their community, unable to attend other arts activities, or facing barriers to participation. The quality and uniqueness at our heart are deeply nurtured in our Powys roots.

We are cultivating forward thinking around the human experience for future generations, working in the NOW to stimulate and create social community change that resonates globally. Working to better the world, the people we love and fostering a community who move and who are moved.

Dance activism drives our work as we tackle the challenges our communities face today. We engage through creative education in schools, arts and health initiatives within communities, and by closely supporting dance artists to lead, develop, and strengthen their practice in Powys. Our work aligns with the fight for climate justice and raising the aspirations of the next generation of creatives.

Our new website will be live in June 2025
