MORE THAN JUST<br />

A DANCE SCHOOL<br />

The Patricia Paul School of Dance has been<br />

providing excellence in dance education in<br />

Christchurch for over 20 years, with venues<br />

in Fendalton, Thorrington, Harewood and<br />

North New Brighton.<br />

The syllabus followed for ballet is the<br />

Royal Academy of Dance (R.A.D.) and for<br />

jazz, contemporary and hip hop it is The<br />

New Zealand Academy of Modern Dance<br />

(N.Z.A.M.D.).<br />

The school has had many successful<br />

students that have gone on to careers<br />

in dance and theatre including: Marysa<br />

Dalton, Royal NZ Ballet, Sacha Copeland, a<br />

contemporary dancer and choreographer,<br />

Kase Craig, who was accepted into the<br />

prestigious Australian Ballet School in<br />

Melbourne at the age of 15 and is now a<br />

professional dancer in the Ballet de L’Opera<br />

National de Bordeaux in France, and the<br />

international singing star Hayley Westenra.<br />

The school’s goal is to be more than just<br />

a dance school. They are passionate about<br />

educating their students mentally as well<br />

as physically to build their self-esteem and<br />

confidence.<br />

The classes Patricia offers are for children<br />

from three years old, with pre-school ballet<br />

designed to nurture a child’s interest in<br />

movement and expression, and jazz and<br />

tumble classes for children from seven years<br />

old. Goal-setting is also good for them so<br />

exams are offered to students over the age<br />

of seven, if they wish to do them, Patricia<br />

says.<br />

There will be a free introductory dance<br />

class in February 2020 before the first term<br />

starts, to see if your child enjoys it.<br />
