About School of Arts Academy of Dance

School of Arts Academy of Dance is a long-established dance school on Bondi Road in Bondi, in Sydney's eastern suburbs. With a strong emphasis on classical technique, the academy guides students from their very first steps through to advanced training, examinations and performance, building skill, discipline and a genuine love of dance over many years.

The school teaches a broad mix of styles, including classical ballet through the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus, alongside jazz, tap, contemporary and hip hop. Programs span the very young through to senior students, with structured RAD examinations, competitive eisteddfod groups and a much-loved end-of-year concert staged at NIDA giving dancers real performance experience.

Families speak warmly about the welcoming, nurturing environment and the consistency of the teaching team, with many students staying for the better part of a decade. Led by director Mishelle Robinson and her experienced teachers, the academy suits families in Bondi and the surrounding eastern suburbs looking for a caring studio where children can grow technically and make lasting friendships through dance.
