Who are we?
Airborn Academy is Liverpool’s leading Urban Sports Centre, dedicated to inspiring young people through movement. We provide expert training in parkour, freerunning, gymnastics, and cheerleading, creating a safe and supportive environment for all skill levels. Now, we’re expanding our mission to include dance, giving young people a new way to express themselves, build confidence, and stay active.
Why are we crowdfunding?
We are crowdfunding to construct a brand-new dance studio within our centre. This will allow us to introduce a wide range of dance classes, from street dance to contemporary, opening up new opportunities for young people in our community. Movement is at the heart of everything we do, and dance is another powerful way to build confidence, fitness, and creativity.
With your support, we can create a dedicated space where aspiring dancers can train, socialise, and be inspired by professional instructors. Your contributions will help us fund the studio’s flooring, mirrors, sound system, and lighting—essential elements for a high-quality training environment
How we’ll spend the money raised
We want to be transparent about how your donations will be used. Every pound you contribute will go directly towards making this dream a reality. Here’s a breakdown of our budget:
- Specialist dance flooring – £5,000
- Wall-to-wall mirrors – £2,500
- Professional sound system – £2,000
- Studio lighting and decor – £1,500
- Additional equipment & setup costs – £1,000
Total target: £12,000
Every donation, big or small, helps us move one step closer to opening our dance studio and providing exciting new opportunities for young people in Liverpool.
Community impact
This dance studio will provide a safe and inspiring space for young people to explore movement, develop new skills, and connect with like-minded individuals. Many young people in our area don’t have access to dance training, and we want to change that by making it affordable and accessible to all.
Beyond just dance, the space will be used for community events, workshops, and fitness classes, benefiting not just our students but the wider community as well. By supporting this project, you're helping us foster a more active, creative, and inclusive environment for young people in Liverpool.
