Dance Base

Dance Base is Scotland’s National Centre for Dance. As a creative charity, they aim to engage people across Scotland in dance as an art form, a way to exercise, and a way of life.

Dance Base supports Scottish dance artists to develop successful careers, developing opportunities for dance to be used to support people’s health and wellbeing. They are international in outlook, ensuring that dance in Scotland is globally connected.   

From their purpose-built studios in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town, their centre provides an accessible programme of activities that offers a diverse public a sociable and enjoyable way to keep physically fit and develop new creative skills. Their programme connects dance in Scotland with the global stage, creating a platform for dance during August’s Festival season and beyond.
