The Dance Academy is a place where children and adults of all ages, shapes and sizes learn to dance and perform. This is a studio where creativity, individuality and self-expression is encouraged and has a community of teachers, students and families who are passionate about performing arts. Our goal is to create a positive and happy experience for all of our students. We strive to nurture and develop talent, celebrate the achievements of all students and inspire a love and appreciation of all styles of dance and the arts. We are committed to providing a safe and positive environment in which all students can feel empowered, comfortable and free to express themselves. We are passionate about providing the highest quality tuition in a nurturing environment to allow each and every student to achieve their dreams. Our caring teachers will deliver a strong foundation for beautiful technique all while having fun and nurturing our students to grow as individuals. We value discipline and focus in our classes which is executed in a gentle and caring manner so that students feel supported and valued by their teachers and fellow students.

The Sunshine Dance Centre has been established in Nambour since 1995. Offering a wide range of performing arts, the Sunshine Dance Centre is recognised for high quality dance tuition. Past students have gone on to professional dance careers either as performers or teachers. Great success has been achieved in examinations with the opportunity to participate in the prestigious R.A.D. Classical Ballet Examinations and C.S.T.D. Theatrical, Modern Jazz and Tap Examinations. Our students have shown great dedication resulting in a consistent 100% pass rate for the school. Exams provide wonderful goals for the children in order to realise their dancing potential. Participation in Eisteddfods is encouraged to give children stage experience and enhance their quality of performance. The Sunshine Dance Centre has had many wonderful results in group, solo and duo/trio categories. In 2011, we placed first in modern, slow modern, contemporary, song and dance, and acrobatic sections across several age groups. We have also had students achieve age champions, adjudicators encouragement awards, and bursary entrants. Each year is concluded with a concert held in the Nambour Civic Centre. The end of year concert has been the highlight of previous years as I'm sure it will continue to be in the future. Participation in any of the above is by parents' choice - you may or may not wish to take part in any or all of these activities.
