What we offer
We have a comprehensive syllabus designed to suit all ages and levels. Classical Ballet (Vaganova based), Jazz, Tap, Contemporary and Funk. Our classes have a strong emphasis on Classical Ballet technique, using the Australian Conservatoire of Ballet syllabus - based on the Russian Vaganova Method. The Australian Conservatoire of Ballet training and assessment program emphasizes correct placement, dynamics and performance skills which are all qualities inherent to the Vaganova method.
