Our experienced faculty aims to create an inclusive, encouraging environment where students can explore their creativity and potential while building self-confidence through dance.

OUR VISION

Our vision is to create a world where everyone can access the magic of dance. We have witnessed first hand how dance can build character, confidence and friendships. This beautiful, enriching sport is an incredible tool to teach body awareness, self-discipline and teamwork.

Through our service of teaching dance, we strive to provide exceptional coaching and leadership to our students. While striving to instil the importance of etiquette and manners, we also focus on good self-esteem and positive body image.

In addition, we want being a ‘Dance Mum’ (or Dad) to be easy and enjoyable! You’ll find our admin team to be easy to communicate with and we won’t hit you with surprise fees or requests to sew costumes.

We believe that our values of Resilience, Determination, and Courage extend far beyond the walls of the dance studio. We actively incorporate these values into our lessons, empowering our students to apply them to every aspect of their lives.

Testimonials

We love Prodigy dance! My eldest has been dancing here from the day Prodigy opened and her skills, confidence and love for dance has grown every year. My youngest is a child that takes a minute to warm up to new activities but come Monday afternoon her tap shoes are on and she’s ready to go. That is a testament to the amazing teachers and fabulous students involved at Prodigy.

We love Prodigy Dance and wouldn’t dance anywhere else.

My daughter has been dancing at Prodigy for almost three years and has loved every minute of it! Jessi and her team make sure every child feels valued and special. There is a place for everyone at Prodigy which makes the studio unique.
