CANBERRA’S illustrious Dance Development Centre is running a week-long summer dance workshop.

The workshop is unusually substantial in that it runs for five days from 9am to 5pm, suitable for working parents who are looking for something inspiring for their children to do during the holidays.

The workshop is catered to both those who currently dance and those who want to get in and have a first taste. There are two levels – junior and senior, for young children and older youth / young adults. There are different dance styles covered and two of Australia’s best guest teacher-choreographers.

The teachers are Timothy Farrar, known for his work in The Australian Ballet, Queensland Ballet Company, Sydney Dance Company, Opera Australia, Expressions Dance Company, Leigh Warren and Dancers and  Louie George, the talented jazz dancer, singer, actor, choreographer and teacher. George has starred in shows like ‘Funny Girl’, ‘Sweet Charity’ and ‘Sisterella’. He has been one of the most popular dance teachers at the Sydney Dance Company dance studios for over a decade.
