Examinations
​

Dance Fusion Studios offer examinations through the Royal Academy of Dance (R.A.D), JazzAddict Australasia, Glenn Wood Tap and Urban Ignition. Although examinations are not compulsory at Dance Fusion Studios, we strongly encourage students to undertake examinations.

Students may start with Dance to Your Own Tune (the curriculum for students from 2½ to 5 years), move up through the first Graded levels (Pre-Primary in Dance and Primary in Dance), and then into eight further Graded levels or six Vocational Graded levels. Students may move from the Graded pathway to the Vocational Graded pathway at an appropriate moment, they may study both pathways simultaneously.

JazzAddict provides each student with solid technical training, performance training, and the platform to create, achieve and grow as a dancer and artist.

The JazzAddict Syllabus comprises of 15 levels and a Teacher Training Syllabus.  Levels are made up of a series of exercises including arm combinations, classical technique, floorwork, turns, isolations, leaps, amalgamations and dances.  All work is progressive and designed to develop co-ordination, strength, agility and style.  Amalgamations include jazz, musical theatre, lyrical and contemporary.  These styles complement competition/eisteddfod requirements. 

Students can enter the syllabus at any age (and ability) at a level recommended by the teacher.  Candidates sitting Advanced Jazz Two onwards must have sat and passed the previous grade as a prerequisite (ie. Advanced Jazz One).


Syllabus work in preparation for examinations is based on the following class time recommendations:
  • Preschool Jazz: 30 minutes per week
  • Primary Jazz levels: 45 minutes per week
  • Junior Jazz levels: 45 minutes - 1 hour per week
  • Elementary Jazz levels: 1-2 hours per week
  • Intermediate Jazz levels: 2 hours per week
  • Advanced Jazz levels: 2+ hours per week

The Glenn Wood Tap Syllabus is a complete system that prepares dancers for a lifetime of tap.

The GWT Syllabus consists of 9 levels (beginner to professional) and is founded on solid technique, whilst being fluid, relaxed and enjoyable.  The exam process is enjoyable and rewarding for both students and teachers.  The year's course work prepares students for the exam process - so there are no last minute panic classes and no stress placed on the students.  

Goal setting is an important element in the learning and development process.  Exams help enable students to see the rewards of their hard work and provide them an acknowledgment of their achievements.

What Our Clients Are Saying

After having danced at Dance Fusion Studios for 12 years I only have praise for both Miss Leanne and the school. I am closer to my dream of being a dancer than I thought I would be and I owe this amazing guidance, patience and care I have received. Miss Leanne has taken time from her own day on many occasions to help me with extra classes, audition pieces, etc. Dance Fusion Studios is not a huge school but this means extra time can be spent with the students. I would recommend this dance school to anyone that wants to dance either for fun or for a career.
