At Dance Conservatory Australia, we’re not a studio—and we don’t replace your home studio.

The Conservatory is a unique training environment designed to complement your home studio, not compete with it. Think of us as a welcomed change of pace—an inspiring space with other likeminded dancers to challenge yourself, gain fresh insight, and then bring that growth back to your studio family. A place to reset, refocus, and refresh your passion.

With both part-time and full-time options, our programs fuse elite technical training with academic integration, strength and conditioning, and personal development. We prepare students not just to perform—but to lead, to create, and to sustain long, fulfilling careers.

We focus on building artistic athletes—dancers with intelligence, discipline, and vision.

Our approach is rooted in real-world training:

• Industry knowledge

• Professional networking opportunities

• Mentorship from leading artists

• The skills to succeed in and beyond the studio

You won’t find this anywhere else.
It’s the reason our founder, Jacalene McIntosh, created Dance Conservatory Australia—to fill a gap in the dance world that no one else was addressing. A space where excellence doesn’t mean burnout. Where ambition is balanced with care. And where dancers from different studios, backgrounds, and goals can come together—not to compete, but to thrive.

Here, every dancer matters. Your growth, your voice, your future.

This is where the best of the best unite.
And this is where you belong.
