About Studio 2324
Studio 2324 has been teaching students of Port Stephens for 30 years. In this time we have evolved to cater for Pre-School dancers through to Pre-Professional training, offering VET courses for those wanting to pursue a career in dance.
The most popular Pre School dance classes are the “READY SET DANCE” classes which run most weekday mornings, you can be sure your child will learn coordination, build confidence and learn to express themselves creatively in a safe space. Our team is experienced and passionate about providing a fun and positive experience for our preschoolers.
On the other end of the scale, our Vocational Education and Training courses, including Certificate II and III in Dance, offer high school students the chance to study part time while at school and gain a nationally recognised qualification.
We have become a dance mecca having trained thousands of students over the years who have progressed on to international & domestic careers.
Adults are also well catered for with Jazz, Tap and Silver Swans ballet classes that run in the mornings and in the evenings. We cater for both beginners and the more advanced ex-dancer in our fun filled classes.
The Studio is open for all ages, 6 days a week Monday to Saturday with classes for all recreational levels and abilities in RAD Classical Ballet, LGTDA Tap, Jazz, Rambert Contemporary, Musical Theatre, PBT (Progressing Ballet Technique) and Pilates.
