"I love the sound that my tap shoes make on the floor." - RPA Little Ripper, 4 years old
Rippleside Performing Arts is passionate about providing the best dance tuition for all ages. All too often, little ones are left out and have very little stage time, and not enough of those glittery sparkly costumes. This program aims to alleviate this problem, by offering classes that cover all of the popular dance styles, in the shortest time possible, to fit in with busy family schedules.
​It is open to children between 4 years old and 8 years old, and is run by extremely passionate and experienced teachers. 
Over two nights only, with a duration of two hours per night, your child will learn to perform in the following styles:

Ballet: A syllabus class incorporating the beautiful and traditional free flowing ballet style, using the Russian Vaganova Method
Jazz: A fusion of jazz ballet and rhythmic dance, keeping up with modern and current styles as seen on modern music videos
Tap: Percussive footwork that marks out rhythmic patterns and beats
Music theatre: A combination of jazz, drama and singing, incorporating many well known musical pieces playing out on the world stage
Singing: A modern approach to contemporary singing, including the latest released music
Drama: Includes drama skills, characterisation, script work and performance
Acrobatics: Includes gymnastic skills and acrobatic tricks in a safe environment

This program will enable your child to learn as much as possible about every genre, in a fun and family friendly environment, with passionate teachers who truly care about each and every student. Short breaks are provided during the two hours, where students can eat, drink, and have a rest before the next session starts. 


You can choose to do one class, two classes, or three classes. Or, choose to do all four classes in the ultimate package for only $50 per week (which comes to $12.50 per hour). You will be helping your child to become the best little person possible, helping them to build their confidence, self esteem, co-ordination and memory, and creating lasting friendships in a very positive and happy environment. 



​Rippleside Performing Arts also has a "Buddy System" where every junior student has an intermediate student as their buddy. This helps the younger ones to feel confident, and gives them a sense of belonging with the "bigger kids". 

Junior students will be given the opportunity to have as much stage time as the older students, with all costumes provided for a small hire fee. 

Your child will experience the joy of dance, the love of singing, the creativity of drama, and the excitement and flexibility of acrobatics and cheerleading. Join the Little Rippers program today, and watch your child shine from within.
