A child’s first steps in dance are the most important and Talent Co. has developed one of the most extensive pre-school dance programs in Perth. We offer 7 Lil’Dancer (Jazz, Ballet & Kindy Gym) classes per week all ‘pay as you attend’.

Our Lil’Dancer classes promote confidence, creativity and physical health. Students are encouraged to develop a love for learning through dance, music and imaginative play. Exercises and activities are designed keeping in mind the physical and cognitive ability of children this age. The curriculum objective is to challenge whilst never overwhelming the individual child.

Our Lil’Dancer students benefit from learning correct dance technique as well as team work and correct behaviour in a group setting. For many students, dance classes may be one of their first experiences in a social, learning environment. Our teachers are handpicked for their rapport and their communication skills and they are attune to the needs of our students.

The beauty of Lil’Dancer classes @ Talent Co. is that parents can choose the level of commitment! You can have the ease of attending class each week with no pressure to purchase uniforms or participate in concerts. Or you can be involved in competitions and performances. Choose the path that is catered for you and your tiny dancer.

Tinies Combo

A class suitable for dancers ages 3.5-5. Our goal is to make sure that each child is nurtured in their natural creativity in a fun and loving atmosphere. The combo class provides a strong foundation in the fundamentals of jazz, ballet and tap. This class will spend portions of the time working on two or more different styles, giving the children a fantastic base and exposure to different types of dance. We have found that this “combination” technique helps to keep the kids excited, interested, and focused for the entire 45 minute period.

For every little girl that wants to be a ballerina or fairy!
Our Ballet classes for preschoolers are simply magical. If you are looking for something new for your children aged 2, 3, or 4 then these dance classes are for you.

The Princess Ballerina dance classes is a creative program that provides a magical experience for your little one. Using a variety of classical music, nursery rhymes and quite a few familiar fairy songs, the preschoolers amongst many things will be introduced to ballet; they will twirl, point, run on their tippy toes and simply twinkle like a star.

Specifically designed for 2 to 5 year old kids, the ballet classes focus on creativity, fun and enjoyment. Students this age respond best to less formal learning environments and by leading and engaging the preschoolers in dance classes that are creative through different activities, they absorb the foundations of ballet technique without even knowing they are actually doing it.

These unique ballet classes involve different term themes that continue to develop the students abilities and extend their imaginations. With a few structured dances, improvisation and the use of dance props including wands, tiaras and all things beautiful, these little ones are taken into the wonderful world of ballerinas and fairies.

Using a tried and true ‘follow the leader’ approach combined with many opportunities for the individual students to use their imagination and explore movement, these 45 minute classes incorporate improvisation, mime, creativity and help to develop co-ordination, balance, spatial awareness and a love for music.

Talent Co. is a registered school with the Commonwealth Society of Teachers of Dancing (COMDANCE or CSTD), Australian Dance Vision (ADV), Glenn Wood Tap and The Australian Acrobatic Dance Association; the societies are authoritive examining bodies whose high standards are internationally respected. These exam classes are for the students who wish to further their dancing with assessment and examination feedback. Exams are held mid-end year, at which time an examiner from the societies will come in and examine our students. Each student will be issued a report and a grade, and then progress the following year onto the next examination level. Exams give students and teachers clear goals to work towards. No child can be over looked, or hidden up the back, or not worry about that step they can’t get. With exams the teachers must ensure each student reaches the required standard. (All schools teaching this syllabus learn exactly the same work, like a school curriculum) only the top schools in Australasia teach this curriculum as it is extremely difficult to be accepted. We offer exams in Theatrical, Modern Jazz, Tap, Acrobatics and Classical Ballet. These examinations eventually lead students to a full teaching diploma.

This is performance driven class tailored to the serious dancer who desires a more advanced environment and are willing to commit to more performances.  Students in this class will start with advanced skills and technique and will explore their capabilities in a strict environment. The repertoire will include Classic Jazz as well Lyrical and acrobatic styles.  Technique is reinforced to ensure quality to all shows, performances, or demonstrations. Placement in this class is by invitation only. Students must be also enrolled in Examination classes.

All troupes offer the opportunity to study dance at a more professional level and are geared for those who wish to take their dance education to the next step.  Being a part of a competition team is an enriching, unforgettable experience!
