Arthur Murray Dance Centre

Last updated April 2026

Watch your child’s confidence soar at Arthur Murray Dance Centre in Grote Street, Adelaide, where expert teachers turn first steps into real dance skills. Little ones as young as three join lively KinderDance sessions that mix music, movement and make-believe, while older kids progress through graded syllabi in Ballet, Jazz, Tap and Hip-Hop. Every class ends with a mini-performance parents can film, giving kids that instant pride boost and giving you the cutest footage for the family album. The polished sprung floor and wall-to-wall mirrors mean every twirl and leap is safe and visible, so you can see progress week-by-week. Whether it’s preparing for a school concert or simply burning off energy after class, dance becomes the highlight of the week for Adelaide kids. **What to Bring** Comfortable clothes that move with them. Socks or soft dance shoes as specified by the centre. A water bottle. A small towel for quick wipe-downs after class. Sunscreen if you’re walking from nearby stops. **Best Age Range** Best for 3–12 year olds. KinderDance programme for 3–5 year olds. **Good to Know** Classes run after school and on Saturday mornings. Enrol online ahead of term start dates to secure your spot. Casual trial classes available for new families. On-street 2-hour parking zones on Grote and Peel Streets. **Nearby** Pop into Peel Street’s Central Market playground for a post-class snack stop. A five-minute walk brings you to Light Square’s fenced tot lot in the city. **Tips From Other Parents** Book the Saturday morning slot if you want smaller class sizes. Bring a spare hair-tie for long hair. Snap a video of their final performance—you’ll thank yourself later.
