Junior Contemporary 7 - 10 yrs
In terms of the focus of its technique, contemporary dance tends to combine the strong and
controlled legwork of ballet with modern dance's stress on the torso, and also employs contractrelease, floor work, fall and recovery, and improvisation characteristics of modern dance.
Unpredictable changes in rhythm, speed, and direction are often used in Contemporary dance.
Aligning with our value of Safe Dance Practice, we enforce a ‘Prerequisite policy’ to attend a
Contemporary class. To participate in class, students must also participate in one of our technique
classes to form the basic alignment and placement of the body before attempting abstract
movements. The classes they can do for this, are any Jazz or Ballet Classes (ie Comdance Jazz, or
Ballet Technique, etc).

Lyra
Lyra (or Aerial Hoops), refers to acrobatic training with the use of a suspended steel hoop. Aerial
artists exercise spins, drops and tricks utilising the suspended hoop. Students build upper body and
core strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, as well as increasing their confidence and body
awareness. Classes will be capped to accommodate safe and effective training, allowing the teacher
to spot each student where necessary.

Senior Contemporary 11 yrs +
In terms of the focus of its technique, contemporary dance tends to combine the strong and
controlled legwork of ballet with modern dance's stress on the torso, and also employs contractrelease, floor work, fall and recovery, and improvisation characteristics of modern dance.
Unpredictable changes in rhythm, speed, and direction are often used in Contemporary dance.
Aligning with our value of Safe Dance Practice, we enforce a ‘Prerequisite policy’ to attend a
Contemporary class. To participate in class, students must also participate in one of our technique
classes to form the basic alignment and placement of the body before attempting abstract
movements. The classes they can do for this, are any Jazz or Ballet Classes (ie Comdance Jazz, or
Ballet Technique, etc).

AcroArts Concert
In 2024 we will be incorporating Acrobatic Arts exams into our studio. The Acrobatic Arts examination process is designed to motivate our dancers to excel in their acrobatic skills. Progressions and structured levels assist our dancers to properly train their bodies to advance to the next level - only when they are ready for it. They allow our students to track their progress and follow a series of defined and achieveable goals. This greatly reduces the potential for injury, creates more technically correct work, and helps
dancers to progress more quickly.
AcroArts 1 Pre-Requisites
All 28 Primary Skills (i.e. Wall Handstand, Pre-Bridge, Pre-Cartwheel, Somersault)
