Portable Dance Floors

Options for Portable Dance Floors

If you like the idea of ''forgetting your troubles by dancing the night away,'' you might need to start by creating a safe place to dance. Whether you’re taking dance lessons, holding a party that needs a dance floor, or want to dance at home as part of a workout routine or to shift the vibe after a tough day, trust Greatmats for high-quality portable dance floor products.

Our portable dance floors are usable either indoors or outdoors. You can install them for practice at home or for performances anywhere.

Our interlocking modular dance tiles work for wedding receptions, anniversary parties, and kids’ performances. Even if you don’t feel like dancing the night away, the right mobile dance floor lets you dance where and when you want. (Sometimes, breaking out an impromptu dance party at 10:30 a.m. is just the boost we need to reach lunchtime!)

Types and Styles of Portable Dance Floor Products

Matching the type of dance you want to do and the location where you want to dance with the right flooring is easier with the help of Greatmats. We offer a wide range of products that will complement your planned event, regardless of the location.

Interlocking Tiles

Interlocking tiles are a popular type of portable dance floor, as you can use a DIY installation method. They’re usually small enough to simplify transporting them to your desired location. They’re easily removable after the event is over.

Some of our top products include EZ Portable Dance Floor Tiles, measuring 1x1 foot, SnapLock Dance Floor Tiles (in 18x18 inches or 3x3 feet), and the Seamless Wood Grain Portable Dance Floor Tiles. The EZ Floor Tiles & SnapLock Dance Tiles have a hidden interlocking system that ensures a layout that looks amazing. The Seamless Tiles include a plywood base that delivers a solid base to support the dancers across any existing subfloor.

Tap Dance Kits

Our Tap Dance Floor Kits are available in sizes ranging from 3x3 feet to 6x6 feet. The modular tiles are easy to assemble for practicing in small spaces. The vinyl tiles have a faux wood grain look that fits nicely in any location.

Vinyl Flooring Rolls

Marley vinyl flooring rolls are the most traditional type of dance floor used in studios. We offer the Rosco Adagio Touring Portable Full Roll for carrying with you to dance performances and musicals. It covers a large space, but it’s lighter than other rolls of marley, delivering excellent results.

For workouts at home, we offer our Greatmats Marley Dance Floor, which measures only 5.25 by 10 feet. You can set it up at home and use it for practice.

Subfloors

You might need easy-to-install subflooring to create a firm and safe area for installing a dance floor over the top. Our Sprung Dance Subfloor creates a perfect space for dancing that won’t have soft or hard spots that could affect the performance or injure the dancers. It’s made for a DIY installation.

Our Court Floor Flat Top Tile uses an interlocking system that simplifies the DIY installation process without requiring glue. This PVC plastic flooring can go over almost any surface, including dirt, gravel, and low-pile carpet.

Carts

To simplify assembly, disassembly, and storage, we offer push carts. These carts can handle the weight of dozens or hundreds of tiles, speeding up the process of assembling and disassembling the flooring.

Our Portable Dance Floor Transport Cart manages 24 panels measuring roughly 3 by 4 feet apiece. Its steel frame won’t collapse under the weight of the products.

Our Portable Dance Floor Wood Cart can manage up to 1,600 pounds from up to 540 portable dance floor tiles. It has heavy-duty casters and a wooden base layer that supports the weight of the tiles without buckling.

Portable Dance Floor Q&A

What makes a good mobile dance floor?

A good mobile dance floor should give you the ability to easily move and assemble tiles to create a dancing area in a backyard, under a tent, in a studio, in a rental hall, or almost anywhere else. The components of the dance floor should fit together tightly without needing to use glue, creating a safe space for dancers of all ages.

What are some tips for purchasing portable dance floor kits?

Some key tips for purchasing a portable dance floor kit include figuring out what style of dance floor you need, determining the size of the floor required, and deciding where you want to use it. You should also consider how easily you can move the tiles in the kit to the desired location; don’t select a kit that’s so large that you can’t transport it. Push carts help with tile transportation and storage.

Where can you use portable dance floors?

Customers can use portable dance floors in multiple locations, including over concrete, firm carpet, vinyl floors, or similar flooring. If you use them outdoors, you should plan on a temporary layout and place a firm underlayment material underneath.

What is the difference between permanent and portable dance flooring?

The difference between permanent and portable dance flooring is that permanent flooring can be secured in place with glue, saving time compared to assembling and disassembling the dance floor tiles. A portable dance floor doesn’t use glue, allowing you to carry it to any location for a performance.

What are the best ideas for temporary dance floors over carpet?

The best ideas for temporary dance floors over carpet include finding subfloor base tiles that are firm enough to avoid buckling and sinking into the carpet fibers. The subflooring should not damage the carpet, either. You might need to install a firm base underlayment and place the dance flooring over the top to create enough support over the carpet fibers.
