Jazz dance is an ever-evolving dance form with deep roots from African slave dance up to 1930s New York society. Our talented jazz teachers will impart in your child technique and rhythm, as well as body isolations and step progressions to inspire their early love of jazz dance.

ADTC Covers a range of different Jazz styles in their programmes including jazz/funk, broadway jazz and technical jazz. Our levelled system for Senior grades ensures the correct progression through skill sets with our entry level- Senior 3- being appropriate as an entry level class, Senior 2 building on technical elements and finally Senior 1 for our advanced pre-professional dancers approaching the end of high school. For enrolment purposes- new students should enrol on Senior 3 & an in class assessment will be conducted on your first lesson. 

Contemporary dance combines elements of ballet, modern and jazz dance forms to create a hybrid, free-flowing yet technically balanced dance. Floor work, improve and fall and recovery skills will all be studied with your child as well as contemporary dance’s fast rhythm and direction changes.

Acrobatics training stems from acro dance techniques to circus and gymnastics training. Your child will learn agility, flexibility and poise in a safe environment, as their acrobatics classes are designed to instill a love of jumping, flying and tumbling from a young age.

This class is recommended for dancers or ex dancers with an intermediate to advanced level of dance training. Our choreographer will focus on a variety of commercial jazz funk and hip hop styles in this high energy value packed class. Its just perfect for the dancer who has completed training at senior level and wants to “keep their hand in” while “adulating”.
