In 2027, DANCE PRESCRIPTION will operate across five face-to-face locations in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, alongside our Virtual Program, which runs on fortnightly Sundays or weekly Mondays.

For the first time in 2027, we're excited to offer two Sydney locations — Sydney North and Sydney South — making DANCE PRESCRIPTION more accessible to dancers across greater Sydney and surrounding areas.

Our Locations:

Brisbane: 26 Glentanna St, Kedron (Promenade Dance Studio)

Melbourne North: 7 Ford Crescent, Thornbury (Niche Dance Studio)

Melbourne South: 11 Walter Street, Moorabbin (Bentleigh Calisthenics Club)

Sydney North: Unit D/12 Frederick St, St Leonards (Tanya Pearson Academy)

Sydney South: 60B Henry Lawson Dr, Peakhurst (All Starz Performing Arts Studio)

Virtual: facilitated via Zoom

Workshops: Studio hosted workshops are held all over Australia and the world - if you'd like to book a workshop for your studio please email drlisa@dance-prescription.com. Open studio workshops are held all over Australia and the world - for upcoming dates check HERE.

Dancers who successfully audition for the DANCE PRESCRIPTION program train together on alternate Sundays. The Med School Team (10 and under) train from roughly 8:30am-12pm, the Pre-Clinical Team (11-13 years) train from 9am - 11.30am and the Clinical Team (14 years+) train from 10am-2.00pm with slight variations from state to state.

The DANCE PRESCRIPTION Program is an audition entry only program. Auditions are held in November/December for the following year. Audition dates for each state for the 2027 program are as follows:

Melbourne: 28th, 29th of November. 12th of December.

Brisbane: 6th and 13th of December

Sydney: 5th, 6th, and 19th of December

Virtual: 24th, 28th, 30th of November. 5th of December.

Dancers can audition in any state for any program or virtually.

If you cannot attend any of the face-to-face audition dates, get in touch with us at info@dance-prescription.com and we'll send you the information you need to book into one of our Virtual Auditions instead.

Please Note: we strongly encourage auditioning in person for a face-to face program wherever possible.

There are no set minimum technical entry requirements for the DANCE PRESCRIPTION program. Having said that, it is favourable if the dancer has their left and right leg splits and can do a neat double turn - although dancers have previously been selected without one side of their split for example and worked on this prior to the program commencing.

Dancers must have a home studio where they study jazz choreography and classical ballet. Participation in ballet examinations are encouraged. A strong classical ballet background is a necessary foundation for excellence in jazz.

The DANCE PRESCRIPTION program would be very boring if it only selected dancers who were already incredible at jazz technique. We look for basic jazz technique - pointed feet, posture, good alignment, foundations of flexibility, strength and coordination is all we ask for. Our aim is to find dedicated dancers with potential and help them achieve incredible feats, safely - so a smart, 'switched on' dancer is a must.

Mainly, we look for talented and dedicated dancers who have potential to be incredible. We look for vibrant, encouraging personalities and a sense of humour. We look for enthusiasm, drive, grit and determination. If you love dance and you love working with us, we'll love working with you.

You don't need a dance prepared for your audition, we'll teach you all the steps you need - we'll also be purposefully teaching you really hard things to see if you rise to the challenge or whether you give up!

The cost of DANCE PRESCRIPTION varies depending on the location and program stream your dancer is selected for. Our teams are generally divided by age into Med School (approx. 10 years and under), Pre-Clinical (approx. 11–13 years) and Clinical (approx. 13 years and over). Class duration varies between streams, so fees are structured accordingly and may also differ between locations.

As a rough guide, DANCE PRESCRIPTION runs across four terms each year, following the school-term structure. Each term of compulsory group training includes over 20 hours of class time, home training programs, access to train with any DP team in any state, group home-practice challenges, unlimited personalised feedback on home training, and discounted DANCE PRESCRIPTION workshop tickets. Depending on your dancer’s stream and location, fees are approximately $400–$500 per term.

Payment plans are available.

We also believe that no talented dancer should have opportunities closed to them based on financial means and offer both financial hardship scholarships, and merit scholarships after selection.

Any and all dancers - DANCE PRESCRIPTION workshops are open to ballerinas, calisthenic athletes, cheerleaders, gymnasts, musical theatre performers and all other form of artistic athlete!

Our workshops are designed for dancers aged 6-24 years old.

Note: Studio-hosted workshops may be closed to their studio alone, open workshops are always open to everyone!

You can wear whatever dance wear makes you feel like a legend! Make sure it's comfortable and stretchy in case we do some flexibility.

You can wear whatever footwear you're used to - we love to wear Capezio's Hanami Pirouettes but you can wear jazz shoes or half shoes or gymnastics shoes if you like! We do suggest you don't wear only socks please in case you slip!

Please bring a drink bottle - it's important to keep hydrated during class and although we don't often give special drink breaks, we expect dancers to be constantly drinking little sips throughout class whenever they're thirsty.

You don't need any other equipment, don't worry any props or exercise tools that might be required will be supplied.
