Choosing your Choreographer
Every teacher has their set skills and strengths, but this also means not all teachers can teach all styles. To ensure we are doing best by the dancers, teachers should be selected by the styles that they teach. See staff profiles to make your selections. https://danceworks114.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/2024-Enrolment-Pack.pdf
If a box is unticked, the teacher does not teach that style for your selected age group.

CHAMPIONSHIPS
For a dancer to learn & perform a championship dance in any style they have to have placed 1st, 2nd or 3rd (HM in some circumstances) in their open section at a recent eisteddfod qualify. Qualifying Eisteddfods include the following only: Moe, Morwell, Bairnsdale, Leongatha & Traralgon Dance Festivals.

2024 PRICING
$55.00 per hour for a Senior Teacher, or $35.00 per hour for a Junior Teacher.
As Performance workshops are new, there won’t be any charge for these in 2024.

(Dates to be announced early 2024)

CHOREOGRAPHY SESSIONS

If your selected teacher does not teach for example, Hip Hop, but your dancer is enrolled into a Hip Hop class and would like to learn a Hip Hop routine, we now have the option of organising choreography sessions with an alternate teacher. This is to save you the time & cost of a second lesson every week, but also allows the dancer to touch on all their favourite styles.
Choreography sessions are 4 x 30min sessions – $60 per hour ($30 per 30mins).

Please email us for a Choreography lesson, instead of filling in the form.

Performance Team dancers will receive 1 x complimentary Team 114 2024 T-shirt and have the opportunity to purchase an exclusive Team 114 Jacket to wear to eisteddfods.

So who can sign up?

Anyone who is enrolled in a class at Danceworks 114.

Private lessons can take place any day Monday to Saturday and are scheduled around teachers classes.
