Australian Dance Vision announces workshop for teachers and dance students in Sydney

On the 11^th – 13th April 2017, dance teachers and students Australia-wide will have the opportunity to participate in a three-day dance workshop with some of Australia’s most talented and experienced teachers and experts from the dance industry.
 
The workshop has been organised by leading Australian dance syllabus developer and provider, Australian Dance Vision (ADV) and will provide three days of content rich training and development in dance and personal development. It will be held from 9 to 13 April at the Ecole Ballet & Dance Theatre in Lindfield, NSW which is conveniently located opposite the train station.
 
Penny Lancaster, Curriculum Director and Founding Director of ADV said: “As well as workshopping syllabus in classical ballet, jazz, tap and contemporary dance, teachers and their students will have special detailed technical understanding sessions in classical ballet and tap dancing with the industry’s best - with a dance motivational speaker.”
 
The line-up for the workshop will include:

• Julia Barry – classical ballet technical tutor. Julia has taught all levels of dance for the past 38 years and is a graduate of the Royal Ballet School Teachers' Training Diploma Course and holds a Royal Academy of Dance Advanced Teaching Diploma.

 

• Morgan Junor-Larwood − ADV’s technical tap tutor. Morgan performed the role of ‘Slap’ in the 2013 Australian Anniversary tour of David Atkin’s Hot Shoe Shuffle and has some awesome new and interesting tap combinations.

 

• Penny Lancaster, Curriculum Director and Founding Director of ADV will talk about Australian Dance Institute’s Certificate I – IV in Dance and how students from the age of 12 can achieve a qualification in dance that is recognised by the Australian government and education system.

 

• Emma Franklin Bell, well-known motivational speaker and ex dancer will give her insights and coaching tips for teachers in their dance school promotion.

 
“As well as our outstanding technical program, and techniques and tips for promotion, we have incorporated content for the wellbeing of students and teachers to address the ongoing pressures they face to achieve high standards.”
 
Mrs Lancaster was an early adopter of holistic training for dance students and teachers and has been a prominent advocate for dance education complementing their technical training.
 
ADV developed a syllabus that is above and beyond technique only. Through our syllabus, students learn how to dance with technical excellence and gain an understanding and appreciation of dance history, nutrition, anatomy and body awareness and the knowledge of career options and the ability to be a critical thinker."
 
“This is an opportunity which is not to be missed and we encourage teachers, students and parents to enrol in this workshop,” Mrs Lancaster said.
