Wandong Dance

Welcome to Wandong Dance, a dance institution located at Rail Street, 19 in Wandong, Australia. We are an establishment that aims to introduce children to the world of dance, fostering creativity, confidence, and the joy of movement.

Our classes provide a positive introduction to structured activities, with children supported by their carers. We understand the specific needs and expectations of this age group, and our classes create a safe and nurturing environment for children to explore movement to music.

In our classes, children will begin to develop musical and physical awareness, as well as gross motor skills. We provide a gentle and imaginative introduction to the world of dance, allowing children to participate with the support of a caregiver alongside them. Our classes incorporate the use of props, imagery, songs, dancing to music, musical response through movement, and basic ballet steps.

For children who are ready to take instruction from a teacher and work independently of their parents, we offer a 45-minute ballet-based class that centers around a different theme or story each term. In this class, children learn basic ballet terminology and technique in a fun and imaginative way.

We also offer a unique pre-sports and movement skills program tailored to the preschool age group. Parent participation is encouraged in this class to support and guide their little ones. The focus of this class is on the development of gross motor skills.

Our Next Steps program is designed to inspire, challenge, and provide a fun approach to learning classical ballet. While the emphasis is still on your child's enjoyment, we also lay solid foundations of dance tuition. Over two terms, students will align their technical skills with a traditional ballet and put together a small performance to showcase what they have learned.

If your child is interested in jazz dance, we offer classes that focus on building strength, flexibility, and coordination. Students will learn technical elements of jazz dance to modern and pop music, with a strong focus on energy, musicality, and style.

At Wandong Dance, we believe in providing a supportive and nurturing environment for children to explore the world of dance. Join us today and let your child discover the joy of movement and creativity.
