Yellow Wheel

Yellow Wheel, established in Melbourne in 2012, is an Australian dance company specialising in working with young people and emerging artists. The company offers a range of programs to connecting emerging dancers with professional artists, and provides rigorous yet wholistic contemporary dance training and professional development. Yellow Wheel presents fresh, ambitious new dance works featuring the next generation of young movers, as well as supporting artists to create and present work.

Whilst acknowledging the incredible benefits dance training has to our bodies and the professional industries, we believe the benefits dance can offer people extend beyond this. When an individual begins learning about their body, and their cause and effect relationship to the space and world around them, it develops empathy, awareness and understanding. Dance helps us understand our relationship to the world around us, and how we want to exist within that.

2024 Company Member Tylah Syme
shares a response on the 2024 Major Season

(For Context, Tylah was unable to perform for one of the shows, however was able to watch instead)

To watch a work you are a part of is a surreal experience. Nobody understands this work better than me, but here I am sitting in the audience, experiencing every emotion I have ever felt in my life return all at once. Some bizarre consummation. I know exactly what is about to happen and I have no idea what is going on. Of course, I am emotional. Of course, I am impressed. Of course, I wish I was up there with them. In front of me are 18 young artists making a choice. In front of me are artists I want to listen to: my peers, my friends, my generation.
