Classes
At Pam Dignan Dancers, we offer Highland dance classes for children from aged 3. We also offer classes for teenagers and adults.
Our classes help our dancers to develop confidence, technique, and a love of traditional Scottish dance.
Every year, our students perform in the Pam Dignan Dancers Annual Dance Show, which is a highlight in our calendar year.
Pre-school: 3-5 years
Our pre-school Highland dance classes in Westhill are the perfect introduction for wee ones to the world of traditional Scottish dance.
Open to children aged 3 to 5, these classes provide a fun, safe, and supportive environment where tiny dancers can develop rhythm, coordination, and self-expression through music.
We encourage creativity using props — favourite teddies are always welcome — helping children build confidence while enjoying themselves.
These classes are also a fantastic way for wee ones to burn off energy and experience the joy of Highland dance from an early age.
Junior: 5-12 years
Junior Highland dance classes help children aged 5 to 12 build rhythm, coordination, and control.
In these classes, youngsters learn both Highland and National dances, developing technique, confidence, and stage presence in a welcoming and inspiring environment.
As they progress, the experienced teaching team provides tailored guidance to help each dancer reach their full potential.
There are also opportunities to take examinations or participate in competitions for those who wish to challenge themselves and showcase their skills.
Senior: 13-17 years
Senior Highland dance classes are designed for dancers who want to refine their technique and take their skills to the next level.
These classes promote teamwork and discipline, helping students develop focus, coordination, and self-motivation in a structured environment.
In addition to improving dance technique, participants build physical strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular fitness, while also enhancing crucial social skills and confidence.
For those who wish to challenge themselves further, there are opportunities to take examinations or compete in Highland dance competitions.
Adults: 18 and over
Adult Highland dance classes in Westhill cater to dancers of all ages and abilities. Whether you’re continuing your dance journey after leaving education, returning after a break, or starting as a complete beginner, these classes offer a high-energy and enjoyable experience.
There’s no judgment—our experienced teachers understand that starting (or returning to) dance can be nerve-wracking, and they provide support and guidance every step of the way.
Classes focus on technique, fitness, and flexibility, while also offering a fantastic way to meet others and enjoy a sense of community.
Private lessons: All ages
Private lessons are available at Pam Dignan Dancers in Westhill for children, teens, and adults who want one-to-one guidance.
These tailored sessions are perfect for dancers who want extra support, wish to focus on technique, or are preparing for examinations or competitions.
Our experienced teachers provide personalised instruction in a supportive and encouraging environment, helping every dancer progress at their own pace and build confidence on the dance floor.
