Anna Lee School of Dance is one of the premiere dance schools in the greater Christchurch area.
We have studios in Papanui, Sumner, Ferrymead, Halswell and the Selwyn District, students have the opportunity to learn dance styles including ballet, jazz, hip hop and contemporary.
Our ALSD prides itself in providing a high standard of technical teaching that enables students to sit exams and medal tests if they wish. Anna Lee School of Dance has a proven history of students excelling with superb exam, medal and competition results.
Past pupils from the school have gone on to train full time and dance, in both New Zealand and abroad, as well as current students training at the New Zealand School of Dance in their Associate Program.
Dance classes are tailored for pre-schoolers through to advanced students. The fun and supportive environment with its’ emphasis on enjoyment ensures students feel comfortable as they learn to dance.
ALSD caters for all levels of commitment. We acknowledge and support all the different reasons our students choose to dance and we strive to provide classes that will cater for every student’s needs, whether it be for fitness and fun, or in the hope of entering into a career in dance.
To be eligible to enter competitions a certain level of technique and artistic proficiency is required.
We recommend that jazz exam students from approx grade 3 and up (or earlier) attend a ballet class once a week.
Stretch classes are offered at the beginning or end of classes where time permits. The focus is on core strengthening as well as stretching muscles to gain better flexibility.
The JDNZ work is predominantly taught to our jazz students. The JDNZ work offers a wide solid grounding with good technical exercises.
Our hip hop classes follow a more “open” style of teaching. This means that although students may spent 2 or 3 years at the same level (e.g Junior) the work will be tailor-made to suit the ability of the class.
