The range of styles and opportunities we offer at Show Dance mean that there is something on offer for the whole family; boys and girls! We are so privileged to have many beautiful families enrolled at our school where the whole family dances.  This has become integral to the sense of community and family that underpins our studio, and makes Show Dance truly unique.

End of Year Photos & Concert

In term 4 every year, Show Dance holds an annual concert at a professional theatre.

This provides our students with a rewarding performance opportunity to showcase the hard work they have been doing in class all year to friends and family. The fun environment we create is consistently reflected in the enthusiasm of our students in the lead up to the big day.

The concert is preceded by one rehearsal, and a photo day where students can have their photos taken by a professional photographer and we film a whole school, music video to be put on the concert DVD. These days are low pressure and  are focused on making fun memories!  Accordingly neither concert or photo day are compulsory.
