Union Southampton Dance
We are Union Southampton Dance (USD) and we represent all the individual dance socities we have on offer here at Southampton. We are the committee who oversee all aspects of dance at Southampton and also plan all our key events throughout the year. These include our annual show, Pure Dance, where all classes from all our societies perform two shows for friends and family in a professional theatre. We also have our competition side to dance, for our competitive squads. These squads travel around the country and represent Southampton at various competitions, as well as at our own Southampton Dance Competition. We also hold some amazing USD socials throughout the year, including our White T-shirt freshers social, Halloween & the USD Christmas Ball. These are a great way to bring the whole of dance together and to have some fun outside of the studio!
If you have any questions, don't hesistate to get in touch and we hope to welcome you to the USD family!
