ABOUT OUR FOUNDER

LEARN ABOUT ALI

Did you know that our Founder, Ali didn’t grow up around Disability?

Did you know that it wasn’t her initial passion to run classes for people with disabilities?

Would it surprise you to know that she held negative, harmful and even discriminating thoughts towards people with disabilities?

From the outside it’s easy to assume Ali was just naturally drawn to creating safe, inclusive and accessible dance spaces but actually it was something that she learned to love.

With directing BAMDance at an international level, Ali is deeply passionate about personal & professional development and brings her 15 years of knowledge and experience to as many international dance communities as possible.
