OUR COURSES

Dance Factory has long been a leader in dance training and education since its inception in the 1980’s.

We were the first studio to offer full time commercial dance courses, the first to offer fully accredited commercial dance courses and become a Registered Training Organisation.

With accreditation we opened a range of state and federal student supports to students, as well as a recognised higher education pathway.

We were then the first to offer accredited commercial dance courses to international students and now we offer the widest range of full and part time accredited dance, dance teaching and musical theatre courses in Australia.

But what does all this mean to the student?

It means that we can cater to the individual; provide dance education that exactly matches a person’s standards and abilities, as well as their goals and intended career paths.

This combined with our outstanding graduate history, which sees Dance Factory graduates performing in Asia, the West End and New York, not to mention teaching, choreographing and producing across Australia and internationally, means that Dance Factory still remains an Australian dance education leader.

Auditions for Certificate IV and Diploma courses by appointment. Once we receive your application an audition time will be arranged.

No audition necessary for Certificate II & III courses.
