Dance in Edinburgh

If you are after weekly dance classes in Edinburgh, most of what is on offer sits close to the centre. DN Dance covers ballet, tap, jazz and acro from age 1 right up to 18, with holiday clubs and a competition team for anyone keen to go further. Simon Says Dance runs a similar spread, from toddler age to 18, mixing ballet and acro with commercial and musical theatre, and builds towards an annual stage show. Latin Roots, nearest the centre, is 18+ only: salsa and bachata classes with no partner needed, plus weekly social nights. For toddlers and younger children, DN Dance and Simon Says Dance both start from age 1, so there is room to grow through the grades without switching schools. If your child fancies performing, the stage show at Simon Says or the competition team at DN Dance gives something to work towards. For the adults in the house, Latin Roots starts from £15 a class and the social nights are a good way to try it without committing to a partner.
