    Can anyone recommend a good jazz dancing class in Dublin?

    Everywhere I look it's salsa salsa salsa:)

    Thanks!

    Dance Theatre Ireland are supposed to have a very good reputation. Also, you should call into Dance Ireland/APDI's Dance House- the gorgeous new state of the art studios on Foley Street. I'm sure they'd definitely be able to help you out.

    Sadly the Dancehouse isn't really open to any dance form barr contemporary, except on the rare occassion. Why is it that all the funding in this country is for contemporary :mad:

    Anyway I too am looking for a good jazz class. I've bee accepted into a professional school in the UK to study ballet & jazz. My ballet is alright but my jazz could do with some work so that I'm not miles behind everyone else when I start!

    I've tried DTI without much success....anyone know a good high standard jazz class in Dublin??
