Curley Dance Studio

Curley Dance Studio is aimed at teaching the art of dance in a fun, fresh, safe and energetic environment. Curley Dance Studio is a proud member of Dance Arts Alliance a representative body for dance studios. School Principal, Samantha Coughlan operates the studio alongside her father Shane Curley as well as wonderful and talented staff. 
​
We are focused on developing every student's ability by engaging each individual with a unique and modern approach to dancing that reflects the goals and interests of the individual student. It is imperative to us that we create a child safe environment based on the Child Safety Standards. We are trained by Keep Kids Safe in Dance and ensure that we are constantly working to create the best environment for our students. Throughout the year students are encouraged to participate in examinations which further excel ability and confidence. Curley Dance Studio is associated with the Australian Teachers of Dance (ATOD). 
 
We cater for students of all ages from Mini Movers to Adults and we pride ourselves on embracing students of all abilities, specialising in accommodating the classroom for students with special learning needs.
 
The close of the dance year brings students together in an annual performance. This is a fantastic chance for students to display their skills in front of family and friends. This is the highlight of the dancing calendar.

Curley Dance Studio aims to provide a community for our students where they can develop their skills, enjoy friendships and experience dance in a safe and encouraging environment.
