Magenta’s School of Dance was established in 2017. Offering Ballet, Jazz, Tap, HipHop, Contemporary, Acrobatics and private lessons to students aged 2+.
​
Our goal is to provide a fun and friendly environment where children learn and develop technique, improve on existing skills and build their love for dance.
We recognise all levels of ability and different reasons to take a dance class, whether that be to build their confidence and social interactions with other children their age or with future goals to be a part of the arts industry with a career in performing, we cater for and respect all.
Our Teachers

Lucky enough to be trained and mentored in all styles from some of Melbourne’s best dance schools, teachers and choreographers, she grew up performing and competing in competitions from a young age and her love for contemporary and ballet saw her receive excellent scores in cecchetti exams. Now, respectively aware of how much her teachers gave her she wants to pass on her knowledge and love of dance to her own students.
