Contemporary danceĀ is an artform that uses human movement as its palette. We train the dancer to move as a whole being with particular attention to skills that bring extra awareness to the torso, getting in and out of the floor, improvisation and encouraging a thinking dancer.

Jane Pirani has developed techniques over the past 15 years to teach students from ages 7 and above how to prepare dancers bodies for whatever might arise in the creative space of making dance. The Australasian Dance Association (A.D.A.) based in Sydney has contracted Jane to create a new contemporary dance syllabus for the organisation, an honour she is proud and excited to deliver.
The school currently delivers seven levels of contemporary dance plus contemporary for adults. Jane is passionate about the artform and along with her colleagues continues to formulate ideas for training dancers to be as adaptable as humanly possible
The school, founded in 1957 by Miss Ann Roberts AO, is now in the hands of daughter, Jane and her husband André Reynaud.
The school evolves to reflect the changing world by offering the highest quality training in the most caring and fun filled environment for both the lover of dance and the aspiring professional.

The school is proud to say that many of its past students have pursued a career in the world of dance. To name a few, are Natalie Weir – Expressions Director and choreographer, Kurt Phelan – professional dancer, choreographer and actor, Tim Coleman – Singapore Ballet; Emmanuel Reynaud - Footnote Dance Company; and many of our former students are now professional teachers and examiners of dance.
This class is anĀ athletic form of dance, with a strong technical focus which allows choreographers & dancers to move between and blend these dance genres together easily.
The Academy's Contemporary classes focus on strong technique within creative and abstract dance as well as artistic expression within movement.
Contemporary is a blend of ballet and modern jazz dance. It builds a strong centre and combines precision leg work with fluidity of the torso. Contemporary dance encourages self expression, natural movement and personal interpretation.
Dancenorthās contemporary dance classes are designed to get you moving just like you, but even better. Inspired by its modern dance heritage, these classes rebel against their classical ballet counterpart, embracing individuality, expression and freedom.
Contemporary allows you to explore boundaries. It is recommended that you pair this with Ballet.
