Stage One Dance Studio offers inspiring and expressive contemporary dance classes in Adelaide, catering to students of all ages and abilities across Fun, Technique, and Performance/Competition pathways. Contemporary dance encourages creativity, individuality, and emotional expression, allowing dancers to connect deeply with movement and music.
Our classes combine foundational barre work with modern stretching and conditioning techniques, helping students develop strength, flexibility, control, and fluidity. Dancers explore a wide range of movement qualities, learning how to transition seamlessly between technical precision and expressive performance.
We proudly follow the CSTD Contemporary Syllabus, making us one of the few studios in South Australia to offer this unique and progressive training. Developed in 2011 by Jason Winters, this innovative syllabus blends principles from Pilates, Yoga, and dance to create a strong, safe, and well-rounded technical foundation. It focuses on alignment, core strength, and injury prevention, while also nurturing artistry and musical interpretation.
Students in our performance and competition classes work towards routines for concerts and competitions throughout the year, gaining valuable stage experience and confidence in their performance skills.
Whether your child is dancing for enjoyment or looking to pursue contemporary at a higher level, our supportive and creative environment allows every dancer to grow, explore, and develop their unique movement style.
What is a Contemporary Dance?
In recent years contemporary dance has become one of the most popular genres.
Contemporary dance is a style of expressive dance that combines elements of several dance genres including modern, jazz, lyrical and classical ballet.
Contemporary dancers strive to connect the mind and the body through fluid dance movements. Contemporary dance stresses versatility and improvisation, unlike the strict, structured nature of ballet. Contemporary dancers focus on floor work, using gravity to pull them down to the floor.
