Breakaway Dancers is a reputable sports club located in Newcastle, Australia. Established in 1991, it has become one of the region's most respected and successful dance schools, having taught over 20,000 students over the past two decades. Unlike franchises, Breakaway Dancers prides itself on being a family-run dance school, providing a personal and friendly service.
The club offers a wide range of dance classes for various age groups and skill levels. The Princess class is designed for children aged 3 to 6 years, while the Girlstarz class is suitable for those aged 7 to 11 years. Teenagers can join the Superstarz class, and there is also a Contemporary Ballet Starz class for children aged 6 years and above. Those interested in breakdancing and hip hop can join the class tailored for 7-year-olds and above.
In addition, the club has the Xtreme Dance Team, which caters to dancers in the Lake Macquarie and Newcastle area.
Breakaway Dancers prioritises safety and quality in their classes, which is why all classes are taught by professional and experienced teachers. The club's creators, Shelley Heathcote and Ron Heathcote, personally teach all the classes, ensuring a high level of instruction. Shelley is a teaching member of the Australian Institute of Classical Dance Australia and has an impressive career in performing arts both nationally and internationally. Ron, on the other hand, is a pioneering figure in hip hop styles in Australia, with vast experience in the entertainment industry.
One of the standout features of Breakaway Dancers is their unique and inspiring dance programmes. These programmes are designed to bring out the star in each student and foster their passion for dance. The club emphasises that their classes are both fun and friendly, and their teachers are professional and experienced. Moreover, Breakaway Dancers takes pride in providing affordable classes without compromising on the quality of instruction.
In addition to their physical classes, Breakaway Dancers also offers online classes for those unable to attend regular sessions. This innovative approach allows students to learn from the comfort and safety of their own homes, with the flexibility to take classes as many times as they want. With the ability to pause, rewind, and repeat lessons, students have greater control over their learning experience.
Breakaway Dancers has six convenient locations in Toronto, Valentine, Edgeworth, Charlestown, Speers Point, and Warners Bay (Lakelands). Whether you're a beginner or an experienced dancer, Breakaway Dancers welcomes you to join their dance community.
