North Shore Dance Academy St Ives Sydney

We are so proud of Tiffany Ma who has just returned from a very exciting trip to the UK. 🇬🇧⭐️

Tiffany was lucky enough to be selected for both the Royal Ballet School’s and Elmhurst’s, School of the Birmingham Royal Ballet, 2026 Summer Programs. These are two of the best ballet schools in the world!

Such a special and inspiring experience for a young dancer! It was especially exciting for Tiffany to visit Elmhurst, where NSDA Director, Sarah Eddie, trained as a pre-professional student.

We are so incredibly proud of NSDA student Jessamy Facer who was one of very few young students selected to attend Kristin Chenoweth’s Broadway Bootcamp in Oklahoma! Jessamy had an amazing time in the US learning from the absolute best in the musical theatre industry. 💗

We are so proud of Liahna Tria, who has recently returned home from a very exciting trip to the US. 🌟

Liahna had a wonderful opportunity to be trained and mentored by the Juilliard artistic faculty. It was a privilege for her to learn from the Associate Dean and Director of The Juilliard School Dance Division, Jamal Callender.

Thank you TUDC for the wonderful experience at the Finals Night and Solo Competition! 🌟

We are so excited for Tiffany Ma who was not only a finalist, but won the Junior Ballet Scholarship! Huge congratulations Tiffany!

We were also lucky to have two groups, our 10 & under contemporary and 18 & under lyrical, selected to perform at the Finals Night after winning their sections. Well done everyone!
