About our Company
Our Dance company (formally known as Julie Bruce Dance/Drama Academy) has been running for over 30 years and our Principals, Miss Julie and Miss Tee, along with their dedicated team of Teachers and Student Teachers, all take pride in the individual development of every student. We offer children’s classes in Ballet, Tap, Streetdance/Comercial, Freestyle, Cheerleading, Acro/Gymnas
tics, Musical Theatre, Lyrical and Flexibility. As a company, we like to make sure that each pupil is taught to the best of their abilities and encourage them to have fun and express themselves through dance, drama and singing. Students are also taught strength and self-discipline in a safe and enjoyable environment which will help them throughout their lives. Each year we do a minimum of 2 exam sessions. Our exams are taken through an internationally recognised governing body called the IDTA (International Dance Teachers Association). We are very proud to say School for Stars has a hundred percent pass rate record. Many of our students have gone on to pursue careers within the expressive arts field with the help of these qualifications. We also give the pupils an opportunity to take part in our end of year show, where all the parents, family members and friends, can come and watch what the children have learnt throughout the year. We find that the students love to join in as they get to dress up in costumes, wear stage make-up and perform in front of an audience. We currently have 2 competition teams, Slay_Official and ‘School for Stars’. Slay_Official are our elite team who are judged to an extremely high standard. School for stars is a recreational team competing in smaller competitions to get them used to the set up and become a feeder team to the elite squad. They have showcased their skills and passion all over the country winning many awards, trophies and scholarships. These children are chosen through a series of auditions and workshops.
