Dance Base, Scotland'S National Centre For Dance

I have absolutely LOVED my first ever experience with Dance Base. I was toying for a few weeks whether or not to sign up for a course or go drop-in, and I am so happy I went for the course. The teacher Jo, for Commercial Beginners is an absolute joy to work with, she's enthusiastic, gentle and funny and makes me look forward to my Thursday evening class every week. I have recommended Dance Base to whoever will listen, and will definitely sign up for a new course the moment they are available ...

I felt welcomed, as did my husband Craig. I was put at ease immediately by being reassured that I would be able to participate in the group activities at my own level of comfort.. We were both approached by both staff and volunteers, ready to welcome us and invite us to join in. Having problems with quiet speech as a result of Parkinson's, I was delighted to be told that the option to sing was also on offer. i was delighted to hear that! I found the humour that prevailed throughout the class...

The most amazing place .I have been coming for a few years to vintage ballet.The teachers, friendly desk staff are all fantastic. Just hope we can continue dancing. So good gor healthy body and happy mind.Cant thank you all enough. Fingers x it will continue.

My fiancé went to a ballet class with Vincent today and came home in tears. Why dancebase continues to promote this archaic style of teaching where the teacher uses the class as a form of bullying and abuse I don’t understand. Surely dance should be joyful and fun and you should leave feeling uplifted. Just had to share my point of view as I don’t like seeing partner upset over something she loves and I feel people should know this before attending a class by this person what you’re in store ...

I enjoyed my visit to the Dance Base WINTER WARMERS Session on Monday, a fun get-together of singing and dance-movement (Exercise). We also had really nice refreshments when we were able to chat to one another and get to know each other. I would recommend this class to anyone (over 60).
