Instructor:
Paul Wood trained first at the Aberdeen Academy of Dance and then The Urdang Academy of Ballet and Performing Arts in Covent Garden, London.
He performed professionally for many years on international tours and on London’s West End, including musical productions of ‘Cats’, ‘The Phantom of the Opera’, ‘Saturday Night Fever’ and ‘Dirty Dancing’.
Paul also held the position of dance captain in productions for Scottish Opera and Welsh National Opera, as well as being assistant choreographer for productions at both The Royal Opera and Glyndebourne Opera houses.
He began teaching during his performance career and now runs Dance Hub Edinburgh.
Studios:
We use two fantastic studios to deliver our classes.
The weekend classes take place in a bright and very spacious dance studio with beautiful views towards Arthur’s Seat at Edinburgh University’s excellent Pleasance Sports Centre in the Old Town on 46 Pleasance, Edinburgh, EH8 9TJ. Some limited facility parking is available at the side of the building, but spaces can’t be guaranteed. Please don’t park in the lot at the front of the Pleasance Centre as that is the staff car park.
On Tuesday evenings we move to beautiful Stockbridge in the north of the city where we use one of Broughton High’s brilliant dance studios on 29 East Fettes Avenue, Edinburgh, EH4 1EG. Onsite parking is for staff only, but there is plenty of free parking in the surrounding streets after 17:30.
See the images at the bottom of the page for the parking locations and the venue entrances to use.
