Best Hip hop dance classs in Australia

We had a positive experience for two terms in boppy bugs but had a change of teacher and it’s been terrible since. They have a rigid no parents policy so to not disrupt the class. Was advised it was fine for the kids with separation anxiety to be traumatized and if they cry for more than 5 mins it’s fine then for parents to come in. Then management organises a full day of filming with a film crew. Assuming it is now fine to disrupt the class because it’s for marketing. Completely inconsistent in how they implement policy and mixed messaging to parents.

We were offered a full refund by management initially because we did not agree with their policy but then the receptionist won’t give it when we requested for it and then hung up on us. We will not be returning and have found other programs which are more flexible and family friendly.

Wonderful and professionally run dance school. We have been coming for 3 years so far and look forward to many more.

We also recently held our daughters 3rd birthday at the school ‘dance star party’. All the children loved it and everything was taken care of and very easy. Oldest child there was 6 and still enjoyed it.

Highly recommend this amazing dance school!

Our daughter (15 years old) commenced classes with ACPA Studio last year and has loved learning and growing across multiple dance genres and with a variety of outstanding teachers. The concerts are of a high standard (not too long - ideal as a parent!) and she is thriving on extending herself in a welcoming environment.

Fantastic dance school, not only in terms of what the students learn like steps but they also grow in confidence. This is a place of "joy" the vibe is wonderful, teachers professional and patient but not "pushy". They have time for every student and are each treated as valued individuals with skills that can be nurtured.

ACPA has been a massive part of my life for the past 5 years. After doing many years of full time training and also after hours classes, i can safely say that this school has had such an incredible impact on my life. It is so much more than a dance school, it is a home for me.

All of the teachers are so passionate about what they do, and they’re all extremely talented. They have taught me so many useful things, dance related but also have helped me mature, and grow into the person i am today. They have all been such outstanding role models in my life. 100% recommend this school to anyone who is wanting to take dance seriously, but also it’s amazing for those who just want to have fun :)))

My daughter has been a part of the ACPA family for the last 10 years. She has learnt all aspects of dance, musical theatre and singing at a high level. She has also been apart of the Dance Academy and is now studying full time dance in readiness for her to go to the next level in her life/career. We have been very happy with her training and she has made some fabulous friends and had so many wonderful experiences and memories to treasure of her time at ACPA. I can highly recommend ACPA

ACPA is more than a performing arts school. It’s a haven that fosters passion and authenticity, whilst providing world-class education. The staff are equipped with professional knowledge and experience and go above and beyond to ensure every student is given the opportunity grow and reach their full potential, not only as a performer but as a person. The staff are always seeking new ways to teach, to encourage and to instill more confidence in the students, whilst also providing incredible performing opportunities and developmental experiences. ACPA is a true community from the Dance Star beginners to the weekly dance students, adult classes, the Academy students, the Full Timers, the old scholars and the staff members. My personal experience with ACPA has been unparalleled, the growth I’ve had as a teacher and student is immense and the ongoing support and belief has been incredibly instrumental in my career. I cannot recommend a better school for anyone or parent wanting to explore the performing arts or simply find a community of accepting, likeminded and passionate people.

ACPA has been my dance home for many years now i and i couldn’t recommend it enough...all the teachers are loving and caring and push us as students to achieve the best we can.

i am able to work on myself as a dancer with the help of the teachers at ACPA while creating lasting bonds with my piers and teachers that will last a lifetime

My Daughter has been attending Theatre Bugs for the past 2 years now. She absolutely loves her Fairy Ballet class and what a fantastic way to introduce little ones to dancing.
This was the only school that allowed my two year old to wear a fairy dress every week and not have to be in full ballet outfit with hair done ect. Trying to get a two year old dressed is hard enough so letting her chose her outfit every week worked wonders for us!
The teachers are amazing and all the children have such a wonderful time every class. Can't thank Theatre Bugs enough. Wonderful dancing/acting/singing school inclusive of all ages and talents!

All 3 of my children have done Theatre Bugs over the years with my youngest currently doing Fairy Ballet! They have all had amazing experiences with dance and drama and have enjoyed it tremendously! The teachers are terrific and so talentled. Best of all it is such a wonderful, fun, caring, inclusive environment without the pressures that so many dance school place on their students. The children really do come first!

Our two year old attended Theatre Bugs classes and absolutely loved it. My partner is a Drama teacher, and she feels that the quality of teaching the children receive is particularly high. She was very pleased with the manner in which the teacher engaged with the students. We are very excited about moving to Fairy Ballet next term.

My 6 year old daughter has been attending Theatre Bugs since she was 2 and she absolutely loves it. From her weekly class to the school holiday programs on offer every holidays, my daughter has always had a wonderful experience. As a parent, I love the inclusive environment where everyone has a part and has the chance to perform. As the Director said in their mid year cabaret show today, 'every child is on their own unique journey' and Theatre Bugs support and encourage them along the way. My daughters confidence has continued to grow with every class and we look forward to watching her grow and learn at Theatre Bugs for many more years to come.

My son loved his 1st "come and try" session as there were lots of fun games and it was a lot of fun. Now that there is a play being learnt and performed at the end of term, the games are no more and it's just rehearsing for the play now. Which he finds quite boring. I think the concept of Theatre Bugs is abs great and for those kids who want to act and get an insight into live Theatre and acting it's great! They would love it. All admins and staff were friendly and very easy to deal with and very helpful. It's a nice local company who are very good at what they do and the performing arts service they provide for kids. Thank you to all at Theatre Bugs!

Leafy location with easy parking for either drop off or walk in. The facility had good security for kids coming/going and is well air conditioned. Highly recommend.

My daughter has been attending Theatre Bugs for 2 years now and I have seen her confidence grow enormously over that time. She loves her Fairy ballet class and the teachers are always so kind and caring.

I brought my 1 year old daughter to a trial lesson at the beginning of the year and she had a wonderful time! The teacher was exceptional with the students and parents alike, and the ability to trial the lesson first was an unexpected bonus. I can see her learning a lot through this school, and look forward to watching her confidence develop and grow with them as she gets older.

ACPA welcomes students of all ages, backgrounds and performance abilities and offers dancing, singing and acting. Regardless of whether you are performing for the first time or have been doing it since you could walk and talk, you will be offered a wonderful amount of support, encouragement and guidance.

The teachers are amazingly talented and not only inspire through their choreography, but through their caring and energetic natures. When you commence a dance class for example, all your problems slip away and you find a confidence in yourself that you never knew you had.

The owner has put her heart and soul into ACPA and hers and the other staff members' dedication and love is very much reflected by the constant commitment and effort that goes into every class and every student. If you want a performing arts company that is not only high performing but down to earth, then this is the one for you!
