Course Details

Jazz dance is a combination of a variety of styles including ballet, modern dance, social and street dance, folk dance, and acrobatics and uses dance forms of different nations, most influentially, Africa.

This fusion is limitless to the creativity of the choreographer, although having two essential characteristics polycentricism (isolation of the body, creating several centres of movement) and polyrhythm (moving simultaneously to many different rhythms). Most common in dance today, and taught at TJS, is commercial jazz (a contemporary fusion of street jazz and commercial hip hop), providing students the opportunity to increase their fitness levels, and dance technique.

Open to all ages and abilities, our jazz classes give students insight into what is expected in the commercial dance industry, while giving them the chance to perform in solos, troupes and competition groups.

  • Teacher's Experience
  • Stephanie is a professional classical ballet soloist, who has recently returned to Australia from performing with several ballet companies overseas for the past seven years. She is a local girl, who attended Wollongong High School of the Performing Arts. During her career as a ballerina, Stephanie has performed alongside several world renowned ballet stars such as Svetlana Zakharova, Jozef Varga, Anna Tsygankova, Dennis Nedak & Maria Seletskaja as well as worked with many international choreographers such as Radu Poklitaru, Jelena Pankova, Rafael Avnikjan, Gediminas Taranda & Ronald Savkovic. Stephanie was granted the opportunity to study classical ballet at the prestigious Ballettschule Theater Basel, Switzerland in 2010. She received intense and detailed training in many ballet styles from Balanchine to Vaganova in a professional theatre under the watchful eye of BTB’s director, ex professional ballerina Amanda Bennett, whom also assumed artistic directorship of the Prix de Lausanne in 2012. She also studied Neoclassical & Modern Contemporary performing works by Duncan Rownes, Vitali Safronkine, Roderick Georg and Attila Kun. Stephanie gained a wide range of training and knowledge from many teachers and guest teachers completing her studies with a diploma as a professional ballet dancer and being offered her first contract in Estonia where her career began. Stephanie was the first ever Australian to tour and dance as a Soloist artist with the Imperial Russian Ballet. Her debut in the role as “Cupid” from “Don Quixote” gained media attention which resulted in radio, magazine and newspaper interviews around the country. A critique noted during a performance: "A standout was also Stephanie Goldhahn who had captivating stage presence and was a delight to watch, executing her solo as Cupid with an ear-to-ear smile. I couldn’t fault her delicately soft landings and elegance in gliding across stage almost entirely en pointe.” After touring with the Russian ballet Stephanie and her husband Daniil danced together as soloists in the National Theatre Belgrade performing many full length classical ballets giving her a worldly appreciation and history of her craft. Stephanie has successfully completed her RAD examinations up to Advanced 2, receiving distinction in all grades. She taught on occasions overseas and throughout Sydney on her returns to Australia.
