Private lessons for Competitions
All students who participate in dance competitions will require a Private Lesson. This lesson is a one-on-one tuition which focuses on the choreography of solos for the use in dance productions and competitions. Competition Private Lessons are generally 15 minutes in length and occur either weekly or fortnightly. This fee is paid in addition to your normal term fees.

Private Lessons for Exams
In the lead up to exams some students may wish to have a private lesson to work on those finer details, helping them achieve the best possible results in their exam. Students may also use this private tuition to work on the more difficult steps, build their self confidence, and help them feel prepared for the events ahead. Examination private lessons are completely optional and are generally one-off lessons that are approximately 30 minutes in length.
