DanceSport is a fun, inclusive and active sport that combines music, movement, teamwork and fitness. Students develop coordination, confidence, rhythm and social skills while learning recognised DanceSport techniques and routines.
Within Sporting Schools, DanceSport programs focus on three recognised DanceSport genres:
- Latin American
- Standard (Ballroom)
- New Vogue
These styles introduce students to structured partner and team-based dance activities.
It is important to note that DanceSport is a specific sport and does not include all dance styles. Activities such as hip hop, ballet, jazz, contemporary, tap dance, cheer, Zumba and breaking are not part of the Sporting Schools DanceSport program.
DanceSport Australia is the national sporting organisation for DanceSport and delivers programs designed to help students enjoy movement, build confidence and experience the excitement of dance as a sport.
