Mater Dei Dance was formed over 20 years ago as an initiative of the Mater Dei
P & F Committee to help raise funds for the school and to give our children an affordable option to participate in dance.
The dance school has grown expeditiously over this time and we feel extremely privileged to have such a wonderful opportunity for our children held in our own school grounds.
The following dance classes are available after school:
Musical Theatre (boys &
girls): a form of theatre that combines songs, spoken
dialogue, acting, and dance.
Ballet: an artistic
dance form performed to music, using precise and highly formalised set steps and
gestures.
Hip Hop (boys)/Street
Funk (girls): a type of studio based
dance that had origins in ‘street’ and freestyle dancing. It does not have
defined steps or movements and is generally synced to the beat.
Jazz: a type of
a dance that had origins in
matching rhythms and techniques to that of jazz music. Jazz tends
to move with the popular music of the time.
Contemporary:
a style of expressive dance that combines elements of jazz, lyrical and
classical ballet.
