DurationThe Certificate IV trains dancers and develops skills leading to audition for a wide variety of national and international ballet or contemporary programs. The Certificate IV is an excellent lead-in towards further training in pre-professional dance programs, musical theatre productions, stage shows, pantomimes, fashion parades, TV shows, films and commercials.
A typical weekly schedule for Certificate IV students consists of classes in classical ballet, body conditioning and contemporary, plus classical and contemporary repertoire, choreography, jazz, pas de deux and solo work.
They also participate in fully choreographed classical ballet, contemporary and jazz groups, as well as singing and music lessons. Theory subjects covering anatomy, nutrition, body conditioning and history are also included.
On completion of the program, graduates will develop expertise and technique in dance performance for classical ballet, contemporary dance, partnering, choreography, dance performance and jazz ballet.
Students receive numerous opportunities for performance throughout the year working with our in-house choreographers on solo and group performances. The opportunity for individualized, professional choreography is one of the enormous benefits of completing the cert IV through NCD.
Like many of our graduates and international alumni, my passion for dance started when I was very young and, like many of our students, I was blessed with patient parents and inspiring teachers who fostered my love for dance and developed the skills and training I required for a long career as a professional dancer.
There is something very compelling about the consistent delivery of world-class dance training in regional Australia and Newcastle in particular. It might be the support for the culture of some of our regions, or the quality of teachers who choose to live outside the major capital cities maybe there is just something in the water! Yet whatever this particular magic might be, I have always been committed to the delivery of world-class dance training in regional Australia.
In 2011, when I was offered the role of NCD’s Artistic Director, I embraced the opportunity. During this period, we were overwhelmed with the wonderful talent in Newcastle and the expertise of the teaching staff. My wife and I, (CEO Vicki Morgan) purchased the college in 2014 and moved our young family from the lower north shore of Sydney to our new home in Newcastle.
Our vision, shared by our wonderful team of talented staff, is to continue to grow the College as an accessible and inclusive world-class dance training centre. This includes scope for the development of a young company of dancers gaining pre-professional performance experience by touring and performing.
We also take great joy in a creative approach to performance with innovative dramatic techniques and interdisciplinary collaborations with musicians, artists, choreographers and composers. We will continue to foster talent in Newcastle and beyond and bring some of the leading people in the field from around Australia and internationally into the region to share their skills and passion.
I hope you will join us as student, a parent or an adult dancer in our vision to provide dance training excellence and exciting and delightful performances to the region and beyond.
We are the leading college for vocational dance in regional Australia, producing dancers who have a unique style, outstanding technique and artistic talent. This is achieved by providing an environment where students can learn and perform to the highest standard.
Our teachers guide students towards a deeper understanding of their craft and ensure students are well balanced in both mind and body as they develop towards either a vocational professional career or a lifelong enjoyment of dance.
We provide an environment where dance is respected, admired and rewarded.
Diploma of Art (Classical & Contemporary Dance) is offered by Australian Dance Performance Institute.
Dancers in these classes will learn dance movements and routines in both the styles of Contemporary and Lyrical dance. A contemporary or lyrical routine uses organic, expressive and traditional ballet movements and it complements the lyric and rhythmic value of the music.
Contemporary Dance Lessons are offered by Dance2Music. Dance2Music Provides a range of different dance styles and classes.Â
This class aims to encourage individual style and develop efficient and easy ways of moving. Movement sequences including rolling, falling, jumping and travelling are explored with a focus on safe dance practice and expression.
Our contemporary classes are for the more serious advanced dancer from 7 years up. These classes work on both the traditional and commercial contemporary / lyrical styles giving our students the importance of technique and quality training needed for this style of dance.
