About ISH Dance Collective

ISH has been bringing hip-hop dance and urban sports to the theater for 25 years. In the performances we connect these disciplines with traditional art forms such as ballet, theater and classical music. This is because we believe in interesting crossovers. ISH is a collective of dissenters and makes dance from elements that not everyone would immediately label as dance. ISH Dance Collective targets a broad, young and diverse audience. Exploring new paths and investing in younger generations is deep in our DNA.

Besides performances, there is also the ISH Academy, ISH Community and ISH Talent with programmes aimed at children and young people, new professional talent and the hip-hop community. ISH Dance Collective has its own studio in Podium Lely in Amsterdam Nieuw-West, where various activities take place, such as the lessons of the ISH Academy, the Open Stage and rehearsals of new performances.
