CLASSES
Our classes are designed to meet you where you are at – whether you’re taking your first steps, returning to dance, or pursuing auditions or exams. With options for children and adults, every class is built on sound technique, creativity and confidence.
Small class sizes ensure every dancer is supported to discover their own artistry.
Class work is built on various syllabi- RAD ballet, Rambert Grades, DFTA and Laura’s own coursework developed over decades of teaching experience in Australia & abroad.
Students become accredited with the International Dance Council (FR) as they progress through their training, and internal examinations, filmed dance work and performance options are given each year
