At GDANCE Academy, classical ballet is our foundation. Correct and secure technique along with safe dance practice is paramount to success, health and longevity in dance and the performing arts.

The Dance. Play. Grow. curriculum is a very special pre-school program for young children starting out in dance. 

Kindergarten aged students qualify for Pre-Primary Ballet, along with Jazz, Tap and Stretch and Limber. Students in this age bracket may wish to package their classes together with our Broadway Baby Value Package. It is at this age when students have the opportunity to partake in examinations.

Older students may commence in Grade 1 Classical Ballet or at an appropriate level determined by the Director.

From the level of Primary Ballet, students participate in a minimum of two ballet classes per week. Students may also choose to participate in several other genres of dance that GDANCE Academy offers. Jazz is a logical addition to ballet, followed by Stretch and Limber and Performance Team. Other genres on offer are Contemporary, Tap, Music Theatre, Vocal and Acro.

The Vocational Value Packages apply for students who have completed and passed their Grade 5 RAD Ballet Examination. The study hours required for Classical at this level are several more than that of the Grades. Students still have all the genres of dance available to them, however the Classical Ballet Component increases in terms of study time. Students should be taking two Classical classes at their own level, at least one Classical class at the level above their own and pointe classes.

We have carefully built the packages to ensure that certain outcomes and skills are attained by the GDANCE students who utilise them.

If you are unsure of which package is the right one for you, please feel free to ask.
