JAZZ

Jazz is not only an energetic style of dance that features upbeat, popular music and funky choreography, but also the most popular class style in our Studio. Following the International Dance Technique (IDT) Syllabus, our classes are designed to develop plyometric agility, strength, fitness, flexibility and strong technique in our dancers. Suitable for all ages and abilities, Jazz is where most students start their dance journey as it is a great introduction to the world of dance but most of all, it is simply lots of fun!

BALLET

RAD Ballet

Our Ballet classes follow the new revised RAD Syllabus which has been updated to not only continue to teach high standard technique but is more reflective of current trends and therefore more engaging and fun for our Ballet dancers. The syllabus develops strong ballet foundations in core strength, grace and posture that underpins both classical & contemporary choreography in all dance styles..

Testimonials

Our little Miss 3 has absolutely loved her first term with Miss Candice. I cringed the 1st week watching her run around wild not listening, then loved each week peeping in at the end seeing the growth and love of being part of her dance class. Thank you.

Kirsty S.
