The correct answer is

There’s an quiet street

The sentence in question is:

There’s an quiet street down the left that you can use for your dance practice.

Let's analyze it to identify any grammatical errors.

The phrases given as options are:

  • down the left
  • for your dance practice
  • There’s an quiet street
  • that you can use

Upon examination, the error lies in the phrase:

  • There’s an quiet street

The error in this segment is the use of the article "an". The word "quiet" begins with a consonant sound, so it should be preceded by the article "a" (not "an"), making the corrected phrase:

There’s a quiet street

Therefore, the option containing the error is:

  • There’s an quiet street
