If variety is the spice of life, the Firkin Crane has something for every palate. Its current 'menu' ranges from classical and modern ballet to the latest hip-hop and breakdancing.

Everyone interested in dance, from three-year-olds toddling their first steps, or professionals preparing for performance or teaching examinations, to afficionados seeking presentations of the highest quality, will find a class, workshop or recital to fit the bill.



Under the tutelage of some of the country's best teachers, there is an eclectic programme, including jazz, tap, modern and contemporary, international folk styles, contact/improv and movement techniques based on yoga and pilates.



In this unique building, support is provided for every aspect of professional dance: space for individual artists to research and create; studios for personal and shared practice; administrative and technical facilities; performance spaces; connection with an expanding audience.
