Wellesley Studios has been established to support ongoing development in the New Zealand dance industry. We aim to provide a space which is inclusive and supportive.
Wellesley Studios provides a professional working environment conducive to creativity and learning.
Three purpose-built, well equipped, fully accessible studios are available for residencies, classes and workshops, rehearsals and showings of new works in development.
“My aim is that these studios will make a real difference for the NZ performing arts sector, that Wellesley Studio will become a hub where artists continue their training and come to connect collaborate, research and create in a dedicated and supportive environment”.
We teach the APDA (Asia Pacific Dance Association) syllabus. It is recognised as exceptionally professional with very high standards.
Ballet is an important base for most dance disciplines and builds strong dance technique.
We merge ballet and jazz techniques, along with creative movement, in this pre-school class.Â
This is the final step in preschool ballet, by term 3 they formally change to Pre Primary and start learning the work for their first exam (don't worry, these exams are much like training wheels: they are just important so they learn the ropes).
These classes are designed to enhance your regular examination classes by spending more time on stretching and strengthening.
