The space

One big, clear floor

Rooms 1D and 1E at The Robertson Centre have been fitted out as a proper dance studio. The floor runs the full width of the room, with a seating and welcome area by the doors so the dancing space stays clear.

Drawn to scale from the studio floor plan. Measurements are approximate.

FloorProfessional dance vinyl laid over 6 mm acoustic rubber underlay. Kind on joints, quiet for neighbours, suits dance shoes and bare feet.
MirrorsA 4.88 m wall of safety-backed gym mirrors facing the dance floor, for checking lines and technique.
Seating50 chairs for talks, screenings and audiences. Room for up to 60 people in total.
Welcome areaA 25.5 m² space by the doors for bags, shoes and waiting, off the dance floor.
StorageOn-site storage for regular hirers, so you can leave mats, props or kit at the studio between sessions instead of carrying it in every week.
LocationThe Robertson Centre, 16 Glasgow Road, a short walk from Paisley town centre.

Why R&S

Named for Rodger and Sandra

R&S Studios is named after my mum and dad, Rodger and Sandra: the hand-holding couple who loved music and never missed a chance to watch any kind of dance. They didn’t drink, but whenever they could, they were out enjoying the arts.

They’re also the reason I dance. While caring for them, I went for respite to a flat in Stirling, where a flatmate persuaded me to join the local salsa society. Years later I opened a beginners’ class in Paisley. It sold out, and Buddie Salsa Renfrewshire began.

We lost them both to dementia. This studio is for them, and for everyone who comes here to dance, perform, socialise or find community. They loved people. This is the home for those people.
