Our school

Gemini was founded in 2008 by Jodie McRae, working together with her sister Lucy to provide dance classes for the community.

We aim to bring each student to a professional dance level as well as enhancing their confidence and wellbeing. Each student is valued for their individuality and encouraged to reach their full potential in a creative and friendly environment.

Since opening, Gemini has successfully recruited more than 200+ students with the intention of encouraging more students to take up after school activities.

The name Gemini represents Jodie\’s Star Sign and is symbolised by twins. Sisters Jodie and Lucy known to family and friends as \”The Twins”, are the principals of Gemini School of Dance.

Gemini offers professional tuition in a vast range of dance styles and disciplines, across all levels of experience for both Boys & Girls. Our dance styles include; Street Dance, Boys Hip Hop, Baby & Toddler, Pre-school, Commercial, Lyrical, Jazz, Contemporary, Musical Theatre, Singing, Cheer Dance, Ballet, Pointe, Tap, Gymnastics, AcroDance and Adult classes.

Additionally, Gemini is available to provide entertaining lessons at parties and provides a range of themed classes.

Gemini\’s Holiday Workshops are action packed intensive academies that are not to be missed!

"Gemini is an excellent place to come and learn to dance. The teachers are exceptional and are such role models for the students. Ellie absolutely loves dancing with Gemini, she has improved so much in her dancing and performing and has just passed her first lot of dance exams. She has made friends for life through Gemini and I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a dance school for their child".

"Fabulous Dance school. Just watched my daughter on stage at Gemini's "A Million Dreams" show this weekend.... Brilliant. The children were amazing and clearly enjoyed themselves. Outfits, music and choreography and the general organisation from the start of rehearsals through to the end of the last performance was top-notch. The passion the staff at Gemini have for dance came through in the children's performances. Well done performers, all staff and all the volunteers - so much hard work went into ensure it was a success. Brilliant."

"My daughter has been taught by Jodie and now by Bradi. The staff are very professional and know exactly how to get the best out of the children. They also genuinely care about them. I know my daughter is listened to (as am I) by Bradi. Any issues my daughter has had eg, stage fright prior to the show , has been dealt with appropriately and sensitively according to her needs. I can't thank Bradi enough as my daughter had genuine fears to face.
If you're considering dance for your child then give Gemini a try. I doubt you will experience any disappointment.

"My daughter LOVED her dancing gems class with Pip! Her co-ordination has come on, concentration & confidence. Pip introduced dancing through fun songs the girls knew & each session they developed new skills".

"I attended the adult tap class at Totley Primary School last night and was SO happy I did! I used to do Musical Theatre and haven't donned a pair of tap shoes in 15 years. The class was neither easy nor too hard so was perfect for a beginner or someone as rusty as me (I was RUSTY!!!!) The other ladies were LOVELY and Jodie's energy is infectious. Massive thumbs up from me and would recommend any one of any age/ability to attend or send their little ones!!!!!!"
