Acosta Dance Foundation

Carlos Acosta created the Carlos Acosta Dance Foundation (ADF) in 2011 (previously named Carlos Acosta International Dance Foundation) – inspired by his own life experience, which took him from a disadvantaged neighbourhood of Havana to becoming one of the most talented dancers of his generation. The Foundation is an incorporated limited company registered in England and Wales under No. 07495610 and Charity registration No. 1142368. The Foundation enables and assists the promotion of public education and knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the arts, particularly ballet, drama, music, the visual arts, theatrical design, lighting, stagecraft, and similar and ancillary arts.
