A brief history

Since 2000, the Youth Entertainment Sound System has been providing free urban performing arts training and entertainment provisions for young people & communities across London.

We offer an opportunity for both established performers & absolute beginners to develop their artistic expressions, such as Singing, Dancing, Comedy, MCing, and Poetry. The result of these workshops is presented at showcase events, where family, friends, and the wider community are invited to come and celebrate the accomplishments of our young people.

In the Community

Over the years, YESS has established partnerships with community & voluntary groups across London, and together we have made a co-ordinated approach to develop activities which benefit both young people and the wider community.

Youth Mentoring

For those wishing to pursue a career in events management, we can offer a voluntary opportunity to work alongside our team to gain valuable knowledge and experience in both planning and delivering an event.

Performance workshops

Facilitated by professional tutors, our workshops help the participants to improve their performance & presentation skills, enabling them to reach their full potential.

Our workshops cover disciplines including:

Microphone techniques.
Vocal projection and articulation.
Movement, posture and breathing techniques.
Performance area management.

Showcases and Presentations

Delivered in conjunction with local civic festivals, our showcase presentations breathe life and spirit into community events, with a programme of great performances and family entertainment, including competitions, prizes, give-aways and great music.The YESS experience is an all inclusive affair reaching out to all sections of the community on the day, creating an atmosphere of cohesion and unity for all.The success of our events over the years has lead to a number of commissions from local authorities, including Newham and Westminster, to provide activities and presentations for local events within their communities
