Meet the ballet dancer determined to show it's for everyone

Meet 15 year-old ballet dancer Jaydon - a man on a mission to show the art is for everyone.

The dancing king from Hampshire only picked up ballet seriously two years ago, but he's already been accepted into the prestigious performing arts academy, Tring Park.

Along the way, he's faced bullying and a lack of representation and diversity in dance, something that he wants to put right.

His dreams don't stop there. He wants to get a place at the Royal Ballet school, to show young black men they belong onstage as much as anyone else.
