Summer Dance Intensive

Welcome to The Collective. ✨

Collective 27 brings together guest teachers, mentors and industry professionals with one shared goal: to close the gap between studio training and the professional dance industry.

Join us for three days of training with artists who've performed everywhere from Broadway tours and Australian Dance Theatre to cruise lines, festivals and the Australian stages. Dancers will train in a supportive, high calibre environment alongside dancers from all different studios across Adelaide.

Sometimes one class, one workshop or one connection can become a pivotal moment in a young dancer's career, and we're here to create more of those moments.
