About CM Dance

CM Dance is a much-loved dance studio serving Brisbane's south, with classes running from its Camp Hill base alongside studios in Coorparoo and Norman Park. Founded and led by an experienced teacher with a strong Irish dancing pedigree and decades in the classroom, it has built a reputation as far more than a place to learn steps.

Families describe the studio as feeling like an extended family, where teachers are consistently supportive, encouraging and invested in each dancer's progress. Parents speak of children dancing here for years, even more than a decade, and growing visibly in confidence and skill term after term. That warm, positive culture is the thread running through almost every story told about the place.

The program spans a genuinely broad range of styles, from Irish dancing and classical ballet through to jazz, tap, contemporary, lyrical and acro, with offerings that stretch from preschool-aged movers right through to teenagers and adults. Whether a young child is taking their first class or a committed dancer is working towards competition and performance, CM Dance in Camp Hill aims to make quality dance training accessible, affordable and joyful for families across the area.
