Principal Robyn Sinclair feels that although this is a fantastic achievement, the most important part of learning dance is enjoyment. “Lets face it, most students attend class because they want to dance, if you produce a dancer, then that’s a bonus”
Teachers at the studio continue with their own professional development by attending courses & workshops to enhance their qualifications & knowledge.
Most recently new updates for NZAMD Jazz & all the RAD Ballet syllabi have been updated.The new jazz dances & combinations give the work a fresh & up-to-date look. The new ballet sylabii showcases pure classical technique alongside neo-classical movements with inspirational music.

It is a genre of dance which seamlessly fuses elements of lyrical gymnastics tricks, balancing, tumbling, and jazz.
Acro adds the wow factor to dance repertoire, creating fluid transitions within Jazz & Lyrical work.
All Acro classes will follow the Acrobatic Arts syllabus working towards Acro exams in October. Exams are optional but lots of fun!
These classes do not follow a syllabus but are proving to be very popular thanks to shows like “BGT and World of Dance”.
This discipline places emphasis on athleticism, agility, strength, control, flexibility and balance. We believe here at WADPA, that being an all-round performer, acro dance is very important to study and it also compliments other genres such as ballet and jazz.
