Dance attracts national and international guest artists. Leading Australian and international guest artists conduct lectures, workshops and choreograph major works for dance students to perform at professional venues. This allows students the rare opportunity to develop professional skills in a variety of ways, for example secondment to perform with a professional dance company or working on an international festival. A unique open and positive atmosphere is how visitors to Dance describe it. Staff are highly supportive - committed to assisting students' individual development.
