Welcome to our website. Thanks for taking the time to find out about what we do.
Ardour was set up in 2018 as a not-for-profit organisation to connect our community together and celebrate the strength and creativity within our community. Ardour holds integration, inclusivity, and acceptance at its heart. We believe that having a safe space and feeling a part of a community is vital to our physical and mental well-being. We offer a wide range of creative and therapeutic opportunities and work with our community to offer services that are needed the most. This includes our weekly timetable of classes, creative projects, counselling, Workplace Well-being initiatives, and community events. We have recently made a pledge to make our services accessible to deaf and hard of hearing people in our community. As part of that pledge our staff and volunteers are learning BSL and we are working towards normalising the use of BSL in our everyday activities.

Today @ Ardour
“Would highly recommend Ardour Academy – both for the venue and location, the way that it is managed, and the classes that they hold. I am currently doing the bellydance classes and absolutely loving them! It’s a class of all different ages and abilities, and it’s great fun with a friendly atmosphere. The teacher is really nice and explains and demonstrates everything really well. I would recommend these classes to anyone – whether you are a dancer or non-dancer. It’s also a great workout!” – Tracey, on belly dancing class
