Canberra Dance Theatre is the place for community dance in Canberra – and you can join us at anytime! With our community in 2023, we celebrated 45 years of dancing in Canberra:
New classes – Contemporary Belly Dance and Sword Dance
Starting on Tuesday 30 January, Bronwyn Buasavanh will be teaching an open level Contemporary Belly Dance class at 6:00 PM, open to all – learn foundation movements for belly dance or perfect your technique.
Sword Dance follows at 7:30 PM. Students will be invited to stretch themselves with more challenging dance technique and by adding props such as veils, finger cymbals, and of course…swords!
Would you like to work at CDT in 2024?
CDT is keen to hear from dance and movement teachers who would like to work with us. We’re keen to hear from:
- Dance and movement teachers to offer one-off or multi-day workshops;
- Artists to join our Artist in Residence program.
If you have a proposal, or would like to chat about an idea, please contact Jacqui at office.canberadancetheatre@gmail.com
