I highly recommend Dubbo Ballet Studio, I believe it is the most professional dance studio in town. After watching my children grow and develop into adults, under the watchful eye of the highly qualified teachers, I know that I made the right decision giving this studio the big responsibility of my children's dance education.
The studio's approach is holistic and extensive and doesn't just focusing on the basic aspects of dance. I really appreciated that my children gained so many other skills like a true understanding of dance, a strong ballet foundation which is the most important part of dance

Dubbo Ballet Studio has the most supportive atmosphere to develop your artistic and technical skill as a dancer.
For me, it has not only pushed me to become the best dancer I can be through their incredible and genuine team of staff, but also to grow and mature as a person and as an artist. The opportunities I received through the school were invaluable- being able to work with nationally, and internationally recognised choreographers and performers regardless of the regional location is a unique quality that has been integral to my education as a dancer. Whilst it pushes the boundaries of creativity

It has amazing people that come through there and SO many opportunities!

They also put all their time and effort into everyone equally it’s such a welcoming and safe place. You not only learn how to dance but you also learn how to be discipline!

No words can express highly enough how much I recommend this dance studio. It has been my daughter’s second home and family for 14 years. The staff are dedicated, experienced, nurturing and amazing. End of year concerts are productions out of this world: costumes, sets, story lines and dancing are always outstanding. Students look after each other and are encouraged to be role models for the younger dancers. I’m truly grateful for all the memories my daughter has made and the wonderful years we have shared with DBS

The most encouraging, supportive and loving environment to grow up in and reach your full potential!
The staff at Dubbo Ballet Studio do so much more than offer their specialised knowledge, skills and expertise in dance. It's a community that is emotionally invested in the wellbeing of every child that passes through the doors, with each student gaining so much more than the skills needed to pursue careers in dance. I could not recommend any higher quality of extra curricular activity to engage in to encourage motivation and dedication whilst studying at school.

I’ve been at Dubbo Ballet Studio for 13 years now and have loved every single second of it. It has provided me with so many opportunities and skills that will be of immeasurable value when going into the dance industry, including a Cert III and IV in Dance.
The culture of the studio is so supportive and welcoming and has been the most amazing environment to allow my passion for dance to grow!
The staff are the most dedicated people I know and are genuinely passionate about passing on their extremely extensive knowledge about dance.
Could not recommend Dubbo Ballet Studio enough! I am so thankful

Pros
- It was very easy to join up, warm and welcoming
- The studio appears to excel in Drama, chereography, elaborate costumes and makeup, and great use of the dance floor.
- Classes always start and finish on time.
- Reasonable term costs.
- The studio has a name for having connections in the dance world. As the old saying goes it's know what you know, but who you know.
Free trial
Cons
- I was quite disappointed in observing the lack of technical movement and range of movement of the students. This was quite surprising, with DBS being known as the best dance studio in Dubbo I do not feel
