The Dance is the first EP by Dutch symphonic metal band Within Temptation.

The EP features the original songs "The Dance", "Another Day" and "The Other Half (of Me)".

The original versions of these songs appeared on the band's previous album Enter.

After the great reception of later albums and the Hydra World Tour, Nuclear Blast decided to release together a re-issue of both Enter and The Dance on 10 November 2014, in order to give the new listeners access to the band's early material.

[1] On October 19, 2018, celebrating the 20 years of band, they released a limited edition vinyl of Enter and The Dance.
