Course Length

The course is normally completed in one year.

However, this does depend on your personal

commitment, progress, number of hours you

put in each week aswell as previous

experience.

We have had experiences dancers in the past

who completed the course in three months

doing 16 hours of training per week. We have

also had someone who could only commit to

two hours a weeks and completed the course

in just under 18 months. This will be discussed

and set during your interview.

You will also have the opportunity to

participate in workshops and performances

throughout the course.

session with Anita during the term holidays. You will

also need to assist a dance teacher weekly during the
