Troupe

Troupe students are invited to perform at various community events including School Fetes, Orange Blossom Festival, Charity Events, Shopping Centre Christmas Performances/Parades and more. Students also have the opportunity to participate in Eisteddfods and Competitions throughout the year. Troupe students must also enrol in Ballet & Jazz to uphold advanced technique.

Exams & Eisteddfods

At DANCE on Q, we follow the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) in Classical Ballet. Exam classes encourage good technique & strength by following the syllabus and understanding the progressions through each grade. Exams are held once a year at DANCE on Q Studio. Students do not need to participate in exams to move up to the next grade.

In addition to Performance Group students participating in Troupe Eisteddfods/Competitions, individual students are welcome to enter solos, duos and trios. Solo/duo/trio private lessons are available and students must also be enrolled in Jazz & Ballet.

Other Performances

There are various opportunities for all students (including those who are not in Performance Group) to participate in Performances including Orange Blossom Festival Parades, NRL Dance Spectaculars, Flash Mobs, Overseas Dance Tours and more.

A Mid Year Display is held at the end of Term 2 to showcase to parents/guardians what students have learnt in the 1st half of the year.
