Shake Your Tailfeather

Get your students up and dancing

All your students will be jumping and laughing from the very start of class. Based on the Raw Energy Dance (RED) program, these workshops encourage all participants to have fun with a focus on developing coordination, confidence, fitness and creativity.

  • Suitable for boys and girls of all ages and levels of ability - including the classroom teacher!
  • Routines are designed to be copied quickly and easily and memorised after only a few sessions.
  • Sessions can cover hip hop, jazz, funk, contemporary, swing, rock’n’roll, bush dancing and disco.
  • The high energy, positive environment encourages all students to participate, regardless of dance experience.

Devised by Dale Pope, a Sydney choreographer and performer with extensive industry experience, Raw Energy Dance is a program that has been in schools and dance classes for more than fifteen years.  Dale is also the choreographer for Bindi Irwin’s KidFitness and a senior teacher at the Sydney Dance Company.

Programs

Programs can consist of a single session, a series of workshops or a term long course; sessions can take place as regularly as your school timetable permits. We can shape our program to fit with your school’s timelines, schedule and educational aims.

The a3 program fee includes curriculum, licences, resource materials (including teaching notes, CDs and DVDs) and facilitation.  All a3 specialists are Working With Children accredited and we will ensure the best match with your curriculum aims, student needs, and our staff.

Showcase their talents

We can help you develop a stage routine for a particular year level or group of students. We can also accommodate multiple year levels for a massed item. Perfect for Open Days, Christmas concerts, Assemblies, Awards Nights and Graduations.

Teacher Learning

As passionate educators, we believe in equipping teachers with the skills and knowledge to continue to build sustainable performing arts programs at their school and to incorporate the arts into all disciplines. Our Teacher  Learning sessions can align with student workshops or be undertaken as a separate element.
