Welcome to the DN Dance competition team!
We believe every dancer has something extraordinary inside them. Discovering and nurturing that special uniqueness within each member of the DN Team is what sets us apart. Our mission is to help you find your super-power and shine a big spotlight on it!
Being part of the team is a big commitment, but an incredibly rewarding one. We hold annual auditions to join the team and our Elite Training Programme. Read on to learn more about what’s involved and how to apply.
Watch our dancers perform
Weekly elite training classes allow focus on advanced dance techniques, versatility, and stage performance. Classes are designed to challenge dancers and develop confident, versitle performers.
Comp team dancers continue regular weekly classes with their non-competitive dance friends. This helps maintain strong friendships across the school and creates the close knit community DN is known for.
Unlike other teams, every DN Company dancer has opportunities to compete with solos, small and large group dances. We believe performance experience builds skill, confidence, and resilience.
Our trademark strength! Watch in amazement as your dancer seemlessly transitions from a graceful ballet, to a rhythmical tap, to characterful jazz, an emotional lyrical or contemporary, and a powerful commercial.
We've purposefully structured our timetable to eradicate clashes and maximise back-to-back class opportunites, meaning dancers can come longer each day, yet attend fewer days per week - reducing your taxi time!
One of our biggest USPs! Our flagship studio in South Gyle has 3 large studios and dedicated changing facilities, shop and reception, and access to our full team of staff, there's always someone there to help.
At the core of our values, we pride ourselves in being a nurturing community where dancers and families feel at home, encouraging one another every step of the journey, on and off the stage.
We compete across a range of levels, giving new dancers and elite dancers opportunites that are right form them in their journey. From local and national competitions, to global elite events such as the Dance World Cup.
Private lessons with spcialist teachers, where 1:1 coaching is tailored to each dancer's goals, building confidence, refining skills, and nurturing a lifelong love for dance.
