Bloom Academy of Dance (formerly Parnell School of Dance)

Bloom Academy of Dance, formerly known as Parnell School of Dance, is a prominent dance school located in Auckland and Thames. Established in 2019 by Founder and Lead Teacher Catie, who has extensive experience as a professional dance teacher and qualified pilates instructor. The studio initially focused on classical ballet and jazz in central Auckland but has since expanded to include a second location in Thames.

The dedicated and passionate teaching team at Bloom Academy of Dance pride themselves on providing excellent technical dance training in a friendly and encouraging learning environment. They offer a wide range of dance styles, including ballet, jazz, contemporary, hip hop, and preschool classes. Additionally, the school provides extension programmes for acrobatic dance, musical theatre, and performance.

With a strong belief that dance is for everybody, Bloom Academy of Dance fosters a welcoming and inclusive learning environment. Regardless of confidence level, ability, or gender identity, dancers are invited to participate in the classes. Community is at the heart of their dance space, and the school actively shares their love for dance through local performance opportunities and highly anticipated dance recitals.

Bloom Academy of Dance emphasises both creativity and professionalism in their training. Dancers are encouraged to explore elements of artistic expression while developing professional dance techniques. The school offers syllabus-led training in classical ballet through ATOD and jazz and contemporary through APDA, providing comprehensive dance training suitable for recreational dancers and those aspiring to have a career in dance. They also incorporate the Royal Ballet School's Primary Steps on Demand ballet programme into their class repertoire.

To ensure a great fit, all new dancers are invited to attend their first class as a no-obligation free trial. Enrolment and booking for trial classes can be done online through their website. Bloom Academy of Dance looks forward to meeting and welcoming new dancers into their studio.
