For NDIS providers & support coordinators

Let's dance!One hour, once a week.

One-to-one dance lessons for NDIS participants — a few minutes from Central Station.

What the hour looks like

We put on music they love, and we dance.

Pop, hip hop, whatever suits the day. No experience is needed, there is nothing to bring, and every movement works standing or sitting down. If someone would rather watch for the first ten minutes, that is a completely normal way to start.

One to one

The whole hour belongs to one person. Nobody waits their turn, and nothing has to keep in step with a group.

Built around them

Tell me how they communicate, what feels too loud, and what they love. I plan the hour around that.

Support workers welcome

Very welcome to stay in the room for as long as it helps. Some do, some stop after a few weeks.

The same hour weekly

A regular weekly slot works far better than an occasional session. The routine is most of the value.

Move. Feel. Live.
Every level, every ability — nobody is pushed, and nobody is made to feel foolish.
Have a look

A lesson says more than a page of writing.

These are my own students, in their own hours. More is saved in the highlights on my Instagram — and if you'd like to see something in particular, just ask.

How a first lesson goes

Nothing to prepare, nothing to bring.

You tell me about them

A first name, the days that suit, and anything that helps me prepare — how they communicate, what feels too loud, what they love.

We pick an hour

I come back the same day with the hours I have free. The same slot each week works best, so we hold it.

We dance

Comfortable clothes, flat shoes or bare feet. We start with music they know. If they want to watch first, that's fine too.

What it costs

One hour, and no surprises.

No booking fee, no materials to buy, and no charge for a support worker to sit in.

The change comes from the rhythm of it —
not from any single hour.
The students I work with

Two years of weekly lessons.

Two of my students have Down syndrome. They are 25 and 28, and they have been dancing with me every week for two years. Most of what has changed for them has come from that steady weekly rhythm rather than from any single lesson.

Good to know

The questions I'm usually asked.

Where exactly are the lessons?

103 Foveaux Street, Surry Hills NSW 2010 — a few minutes' walk from Central Station. If you'd prefer I come to you, I can; that adds the $100 travel fee to the lesson price.

What if they don't want to dance that day?

Then we don't. We might sit and listen to music, or they watch for a while and join in later. Nobody is pushed, and an hour where someone just felt comfortable in the room is not a wasted hour.

Can a support worker stay?

Always welcome, for as long as it helps, at no extra cost. Some stay every week, some stop after a few weeks once the routine settles.

What should they wear or bring?

Comfortable clothes and flat shoes, or bare feet. Nothing else — I bring the music.

Do they need any dance experience?

None at all. Most of my students had never had a dance lesson before. Every movement works standing or sitting down.

Which styles do you teach them?

General dance — pop, hip hop, whatever they enjoy on the day. We follow what they're drawn to rather than a fixed syllabus.

Getting started

Let's start dancing.

Tell me when they'd like to begin and we'll pick a day and an hour that suits them. Support workers are very welcome to stay and join in.
