FAQ

 

When do you break for holidays?

Caramell classes recommence Monday January 4th 2010 and close for Christmas/New Year on December 19th 2010. Caramell Classes (Open and Junior School) run every day of the year excluding Easter Public holidays. Check the website as we may offer special workshop classes over the holidays!

 

 

Where are you located and how do I get there?

Please visit our Location page

 

 

IÕve never danced before where do I start?

The best place for you would be any of our classes marked ÔBeginnerÕ level. Note that Open Classes are also for beginners, although there are mixed levels in the class the teacher will break it down individually to each student to get you to the next level.

 

 

Do you teach Private Lessons?

Yes, please contact us on 9557 0886 to book.

 

 

What is the class procedure?

First of all please arrive 10-15 minutes before your class starts to allow yourself time to prepare for your class, everyone must sign in at reception, if you are new there is a little bit of paperwork that must be completed before you enter the studio.

 

Our classes normally start with a warm up, you will learn a number of steps in the chosen dance style, some choreography may then be taught and performed by everyone. Lastly, if time allows a nice cool down/stretch at the end of each class.

 

 

I want to Audition for your Performance Course/Crews.

 

We normally hold auditions at the commencement of each 10 week course. However if you think youÕve got what it takes to be in a performance group, we are always excited to see new faces. Contact the studio on 9557 0886 or email@caramelldancestudio.com

 

 

Can I start now or should I wait till next term?

You may start any time, most of our classes are casual. Occasionally an instructor/choreographer will teach a routine that could go for 2 weeks, so when this happens it is handy to have attended the previous week as it acts as a continuation class the following week, but this happens very rarely.

 

The only other time that our dance instructors will go over previously learned choreography is during concert times. This happens twice per year. We normally give a lot of notice on our noticeboards, hand-outs and our website when this is happening so the public are aware of the class situation.
