Victorian Dance Academy School of Performing Arts

A school of dance with multiple accolades, countless awards and national recognition. Yet the greatest asset of this school are the teachers. Dance is just the means for inspiring kids to follow a dream, to work hard, to be rewarded, to win, to lose, to persevere, to get back up and to keep going! To find joy in your work, in your talents, in your skills, in your passion. To respect and inspire the people around you, to compete and to foster great friendships. And before you know it, the kid you were driving to the Saturday morning dance classes needs the car key to drive to uni and drive to work, after dancing. What is taught in this school through dancing is how to succeed in life, by loving what you're doing. This school is not only creating dance stars, is helping kids to grow into great people through dance.

My daughter has been attending VDA for several years, and as a result she just loves dancing. Kerrie and her team are true professionals and build a love of dance in the children, which is wonderful to witness. The facilities are terrific and so appealing to children, including their dance store, and the staff, especially beautiful Marilyn, are all excellent. Kerrie, as the Principal, has extremely high standards, which are reflected in every aspect of her amazing school. Many thanks to Kerrie and all of the VDA team. We look forward to many more years of dance with you! Keep up the wonderful work!

My daughter has been in VDA for 5 years and she loves it so much. In VDA, she has learned not just dancing techniques, but most importantly what the good and correct attitude is to be a professional dancer. We are appreciated all VDA teachers’ hard work and support for our kid. I have recommended some of our friends to join VDA family, and they all love it. Sometimes, it is not easy to find a suitable studio for the kids. We are just so lucky to join VDA and looking forward to dancing with them for many years to come.

We have been with VDA for 6 years and dancing days at VDA are always the highlight of week for my two daughters. The supportive and encouraging atmosphere from principal, staff and other families make it feel like a big family. The girls not only learn dancing, but also discipline, respect, teamwork and friendship. Kerrie (Principal) is one of most dedicated people I’ve ever seen. She devoted herself to helping the girls achieve their dreams.

I absolutely love the supportive environment at VDA. The children all look after each other and there is a really special relationship the children have with one another - of all different age groups. The older girls totally look after the younger girls and you can see how much the younger children look up to their older counterparts. Such a caring environment. The teachers are all lovely, definitely know their craft and know how to pass their skills on to all the students. Zara has absolutely loved being part of this dance school and and I have and will continue to recommend it to everyone looking to have their child involved in dance. Thanks so much Kerrie and VDA. ☺️
