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