Opportunity through
inclusive dance
Indepen-dance is an award winning inclusive dance company for disabled and non-disabled people to enjoy, express, and fulfil their potential through dance. Our mission is to enable participation in high quality arts provision and improve wellbeing, quality of life and provide opportunities for disabled and non-disabled dancers in both the professional and non-professional dance sectors. We provide weekly creative movement and dance classes throughout the year, where participants become lifelong members and join a thriving social network. We also provide bespoke professional training, career development and employment opportunities.

Core Classes
Our core classes are based in Glasgow for our members and run on a term by term basis in Glasgow
Outreach Classes
Our outreach classes are run outside Glasgow for children, youths and families.
Specialised Classes
Our specialised classes run in Glasgow for varying ages and abilities and are open to members and
