Five years of moving, connecting and building together.

It’s been beautiful, transformative, and we’re incredibly proud of the community we’ve created. But right now, grassroots culture in London is facing real challenges, and we believe ORII needs to evolve with it.

ORII was created to serve and uplift artists and creatives. To protect our community, the spirit of ORII, and make sure artists, hosts, dancers, and everyone involved are properly valued, we are entering a new chapter: ORII REBIRTH.

We have transitioned to 4 landmark events per month:

✨ Week 1: ORII EAST + ORII SOUTH

OG sessions - jams, cyphers, freestyle & open floor.

✨ Week 3: ORII EAST + ORII SOUTH

Special events - themed sessions, workshops, battles, collaborations & takeovers.

Less quantity, more intention. More space to dance. More opportunities to connect. More meaningful collaborations. More value for the community.

1st half | for beginners to come on stage supported by our house band and hosts + an open and welcoming space for beginners and emerging dancers to step in, explore and build confidence.

2nd half | for seasoned musicians, instrumentalists and vocalists to perform + the floor opens up for experienced dancers, freestylers and movers to exchange, cypher, experiment and push the energy further.
