Equip - Encourage - Engage

“Our daughter has been dancing with Generation Edinburgh since 2018 and she absolutely loves it. Miriam and her team are brilliant - talented, hard working and most importantly kind and caring. They are also great at communicating with families and involving them in what the school is doing. Our daughter looks forward to her weekly class and now has a love for all things dance, which I'm sure has been inspired by Miriam. Recently we experienced GE in a new way when Miriam provided the entertainment for our daughter's 6th birthday party. The kids (both girls and boys) had a lot of fun and Miriam even came up with great suggestions to fit the slightly random theme that my daughter wanted, which was an added bonus."

"Almost a year ago I posted on egg, looking for recommendations for ballet classes for my daughter, then in P1. She wasn’t enjoying her class at the time and I hoped a different style of teaching might make a difference. I felt she needed a teacher who would take things step by step, working on new skills and routines until the children had got the hang of it. Someone recommended Miss M, from Generation Edinburgh dance school. 

This evening, in the wonderful Central Hall venue in Tollcross, I watched my daughter lead off her class’s dance with a small solo in front of an audience of several hundred. She did brilliantly, as did the rest of her class and the 90 or so other children participating in this wonderful dance show. From breakdancing to tap dancing, jazz and ballet, all the dancers, from preschoolers to adults, were clearly enjoying themselves and the hard work over several months was vindicated. 

Many people were involved in pulling all this together, but most of the credit has to go to Miss M, whose wonderful teaching, choreography, warmth, energy and dedication made this happen. 

If you’re looking for a dance class in north Edinburgh or East Lothian, I cannot recommend Generation Edinburgh highly enough."

"My daughter is now 13 and has been attending GE since she was at nursery.  She loves her time at class - the friendships the girls have built together as a group are really special.  Miriam fosters such a welcoming and supportive environment with kindness and respect embedded in her teaching - and this is passed down to all her pupils.  I would not hesitate to recommend GE to any parent/carer looking for dance classes for their child.  "
