COASTAL DANCE

Congratulations to our ballet students who sat their Australian Conservatoire of Ballet Exams in Term 2 with examiner Valmai Roberts. Of the six candidates entered two of our students received Distinction with marks between 90 – 100%.

Exams are a great tool of motivation for students giving them a consistent goal to work towards. If your child is interested in sitting a ballet exam in 2019 students are required to take 2 ballet classes a week with our classical extension class also recommended.

The Coastal Dance end of year concert will be held on Tuesday the 4th of December at 6:30pm. The concert will be held at the Nerang Bicentennial Centre. Tickets will go on sale Sunday the 28th of October on trybooking.com

It’s with great pride & happiness that we can announce that 2017 graduate Holly Johnston has accepted a contract with the Moulin Rouge, Paris. Holly started her training with Coastal Dance at age 5 & with a lot of hard work & dedication, she blossomed into the most elegant of dancers. We are excited to watch Holly’s career as she steps onto this historic stage.
