Our exceptional tutors

MADE is a forerunner in mature arts in Australia, and the only company dedicated to the educative/health aspects of mature dance AND to an ongoing program of public performance of mature contemporary dance works. Established in 2005, MADE is a not-for-profit Tasmanian-based arts organisation that partners professional artists with non-professional dancers to create and present visually beautiful contemporary dance theatre. These works are performed by people aged 50 and over, in primarily non-traditional performance spaces.

We create opportunities to showcase the power of dance and to show the mature artist as a creative, energetic force in, and engaged with, the world.

PLEASE NOTE: You must be fully vaccinated to attend our classes. We encourage mask wearing. Please do not attend class if you are unwell. The MADE Board regularly reviews our Covid-Safe Policy and and this policy will remain in place for Term 3, 2024.
