Kids Performing Arts & Dance School In Sydney

LA Talent offers performing arts and dance classes for kids in Sydney. Performing arts refers to the style of art that is performed in front of an audience, and includes singing, acting and dancing. Whilst performers often focus on one, it is not uncommon for performers to practice all of them, known as the triple threat.

Dancing is the use of the body and movement to express a thought, feeling or idea. Dancing has a long-standing history in art and culture, and is celebrated in many cultures. At LA Talent, we offer dance classes for a variety of styles, including acrobatics, hip hop and ballet.

Acting refers to the showcasing of a character and story through the use of visual and theatrical elements on stage. Actors perform on stage, in movies and in less conventional roles such as in theme parks. Acting is an art form that requires dedication and commitment. It is highly confidence boosting and is a good choice for children with larger than life personalities who are looking to explore their creativity.

Singing is the activity of performing songs in front of an audience. Talent and training is needed to help a singer grow. We offer comprehensive singing classes for our performers.

Kids gain confidence, resilience, and self-expression through performing arts (whether in a formal setting or not). Children can break down barriers to reality through dramatic play, regardless of the medium they use.

Kids Contemporary Dance Classes – Graceful and fun, this style of dance is more free-flowing than ballet.
