Dance in Dublin
34 dance studios to discover.
Last updated
Thirty-four dance studios operate across Dublin, and they are spread more widely than the city centre alone might suggest. Blanchardstown has the largest cluster with three, including Fitbug Fitness, while Clondalkin has two, among them Tanya Michelle School of Dance. Further out, Dún Laoghaire is home to The Loft Dance Studio, and Santry, Dundrum and a handful of other suburbs each have a studio of their own. The variety is wide: Irish dance is taught at Ardu Academy of Irish Dance, and classical ballet at The Nicola Farcas School of Ballet in Santry. Five studios currently hold a perfect 5.0 rating, which makes them a sensible starting point for comparison. This page sets out each studio's location, style and rating so you can narrow the options by neighbourhood and find a class that suits your level.
