DESCRIPTION:
With outstanding results year after year, the National College of Dance (NCD) training programs have students who are performing in all genres all over the world.  Our courses are streamed to ensure you get the most advanced individualised training in the genre that you are most interested in being employed. Our training in all streams have an emphasis on classical and contemporary technique. NCD students are technical, versatile and highly sought after when completing their training. Our teachers and mentors all have the common goal of developing each dancer to a level capable to pursue their dreams. With over a decade of experience as a Registered Training Organisation, each student leaves with a nationally recognised qualification giving them future options after a successful career in dance.

NCD also offers extra support in preparing students for auditions through regular in-house audition classes, Career Planning sessions, Audition video and photo portfolios and many guest artists and workshops. We also have an Alumni forum with the opportunity to link and remain in contact with many NCD past students located all over the world. NCD is also located in one of Australia’s most dynamic coastal towns.

“I have been a student with the National College of Dance for the past 8 years. It is the most welcoming friendly environment, all the kids are very talented and are like a second family. Brett Morgan and his team have helped me fulfil my aspirations of being a dancer. All the staff are extremely knowledgeable, nurturing and as teachers they not only help you grow as a dancer but also as people.”Grace Humphris (2019 Graduate, 2019 Prix De Lausanne entrant, 2018 Sydney Eisteddfod Scholarship finalist, Accepted on scholarship to Dutch Nationale Ballet School)
