About Us
What We Value at Derby Bayanihan Productions
We value DANCE.
At DBP, we believe that dance builds confidence, discipline, and creativity. It supports the physical and emotional growth of young people and serves as a powerful form of self-expression.
We provide a platform where children and youth can explore their talents through free dance training and workshops, and proudly represent the Filipino spirit through performance.
We value SPORTS
Sports are more than games — they create belonging, wellness, and resilience.
At DBP, we provide inclusive spaces for all ages to engage in basketball, volleyball, and badminton.
Through these activities, we promote healthy living, teamwork, and a strong community spirit. We welcome everyone, from beginners to future coaches.
We value MUSIC
Music is at the heart of Filipino identity — a way to share our stories, celebrate our roots, and connect across cultures.
Through performances, collaborations, and events, DBP brings music to the forefront as a tool for cultural pride, creative development, and joyful expression.
We value "BAYANIHAN"
“Bayanihan” means more than helping — it means moving together as one community.
Rooted in this timeless Filipino value, DBP is committed to supporting every Filipino in the UK.
\Whether through cultural programmes, outreach, or simply being there for one another, we strive to be a home away from home — a space of connection, support, and pride.

Derby Bayanihan Boys gives it to you!
Super Dancers! Here’s a throwback video of our talented Filipino boys moving to the rhythm of “Give It To You (Remix)” by Jordan Knight during the Celebration of Love show last February 2020. These youngsters learned and worked hard during our free dance workshops last October to November 2019 and have developed friendships over the past year due to our initiatives at Derby Bayanihan Productions.
Inspiring new talents for the future!
This was the motto in which the founding members of Derby Bayanihan Productions (DBP) have held on since they started their mission. DBP is an independent non-profit group dedicated to showcase talents from the Filipino Community in Derby as well in the UK, and aims to inspire talents by opening a platform to express and develop in the form of Arts, Music and Sports.
