Our Programs
What happens in a Ready Set Dance class
Ready Set Dance is a combo class of jazz, tap, hip hop, singing and music. Designed for both boys and girls, it teaches the fundamentals of dance while developing confidence, coordination and creativity in a professional, safe environment.
Jazz
Develops muscle strength, control and balance — plus coordination milestones like skipping before going to school.
Hip Hop
Bust out some ice-cold moves just like FREEZE to our original hip hop tracks.
Music
Develops the musical ear, dynamics and tempo while having fun with instruments and the parachute.
Singing
Sing like TWIRL and build confidence singing on the microphone.
Tap
Learn the fundamentals of tap, splashing in puddles and shuffling like a penguin.
Classes & Ages

Why Ready Set Dance
The 3 C's your child will grow
Confidence
Regular and sustained participation in Ready Set Dance classes helps children develop their confidence as they try new things, practice and consolidate existing skills, and experience success and mastery.
Coordination
A carefully sequenced and playful program that develops physical coordination, the coordination of the senses, of the mental processes and language, and of social connections.
Creativity
Children are encouraged to use their imaginations divergently and to explore their own creative responses to the invitations within dance, music and drama.

Parking
Turn into the driveway and parking is down the bottom. We have a very large, safe carpark with minimal traffic (except at peak times) and ample green areas in front of the studio.
Foyer & Amenities
A comfortable foyer with plenty of seating, toilets for students and families, a complete uniform shop for all your dance wear needs, and cold water available for purchase.
Concerts
We hold two performances each year. The Mid-Year Showcase (held at the ECBC, end of Term 2) sees students present their Ready Set Dance exercises in uniform. The End-of-Year Concert (also at the ECBC) features a routine per genre in costume, fitting our themed concert. We're also sometimes invited to community displays students can perform at in their uniforms.
Conduct & Respect
We expect all students to respect their teachers and peers. Students show gratitude at the end of class by thanking their teachers, we celebrate each other's successes, and we remind students to show kindness. We do not tolerate bullying of any kind.
