Jack Anderson

I am a dancer living and working in Glasgow. I began working as an Irish dancer in 2008, touring internationally with Rhythm of the Dance, Celtic Legends and Ériu Dance Company. Since re-training at Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance, I have worked extensively as a performer for Shotput and Éowyn Emerald & Dancers, as well as on projects with Michael Clark, Farah Saleh, Aya Kobayashi & Monika Smekot, Rob Heaslip, Barrowland Ballet, Company Chordelia and others.

I’ve taught company class as a guest teacher for New Adventures and Stopgap Dance Company, and regularly teach ballet and contemporary to adults from absolute beginner to professional level at Scottish Ballet, Dance Base, The Work Room, Dance Glasgow and others.

I facilitate inclusive dance workshops, mentoring and practitioner training with Paragon, and for Indepen-dance.

I work with lots of young people on Scottish Ballet’s Safe to Be Me programme, and was an Immerse Artist in Residence for Imaginate in 2022.

In 2024-25 I was awarded choreographic research residencies at The Work Room, Dance Ireland, Dance Limerick and Galway Dance. In 2025 I premiered the dance-theatre gig ‘not for glory’ in collaboration with Charlotte Mclean and Malin Lewis.
