Dance Edge School of Performing Arts

"We’ve been with DancEdge for the last 5 years (this is our 6th year). The owners are AMAZING and they genuinely care about their students. My daughter has had many teachers over this period (adult teachers and younger teachers) and they’ve all been really lovely. Dancing is fun here and everyone is encouraged to learn. The older kids do look out for the smaller ones and I’ve never observed the seniors to be badly behaved. The kids she dances with over the years have all been friendly. I’ve spent many hours each week in their studio waiting while my daughter’s in her classes and my feedback is based on what I have seen, heard and experienced. Totally flabbergasted by some of the critical feedback left here - as it’s not our experience with the studio."

"As a parent of one of the students gaining a formal qualification (Cert III) in Dance through DancEdge, the statements made by C Pike are untrue. In 2019, my daughter successfully completed her Certificate II in Dance, on top of her formal qualification, she has also gained experience as a dance teacher through assisting teaching junior classes, in which she is paid. DancEdge is NOT a money-making mill, if my daughter was to obtain her certification elsewhere her tuition fees would be a lot more. This is my daughter’s 10th year dancing at DancEdge and the support, mentoring and development opportunities that DancEdge provide is amazing. DancEdge is a family, with an incredible, nurturing environment where each dancer is respected and truly cared about. The two studio Directors and their teachers are professional, knowledgeable, are always willing to go out of their way and their encouragement is always positive. DancEdge is like a second home to my daughter who has formed friendships with the other dance students and teachers that she will have forever. DancEdge is a fantastic school and I highly recommend."

"My daughter and I both attend classes at DancEdge and we LOVE it! All of the staff are great at what they do, professional, caring and welcoming. I love the focus on dancer safety, and the way the Directors nurture the development of children within the school. I also like that the kids have choice - they are not forced into exams, troupe or end of year shows, but have the opportunity to participate if they want to. I love that all dancers are supported - those who do it just for fun, as well as those who have the dreams to become professional dancers or teachers. DancEdge provides great role models for our kids. Can highly recommend."

"DancEdge is a warm, inclusive, welcoming and professional community that my daughter has had the privilege to be a part of for the past 5 years. The teaching staff are amazing and go above and beyond for every single student, supporting each to grow and develop as dancers and as people. My daughter's confidence and sense of self worth has swelled within this space and she looks forward to each class, not just to dance but to be among the strong, supportive community of people who embrace who she is and help her express herself inside and outside the dance studio. I cannot recommend this studio highly enough, if there was a 6 and 7th star I would allocate those also."
