Every class is about so much more than learning the steps. 💫

While they dance, play and move, they’re also building skills that can support them far beyond the studio - confidence, independence, resilience, self-regulation and so much more. 💙

The dance may last a few minutes, but the skills they’re practising can stay with them for years to come.

It’s one of the many reasons we love what we do. 🥹✨

🌿 The Jungle Picnic was pure magic! ✨

What an absolutely AMAZING show! 🥹🤩

Some of our dancers, both big and small (plus teachers!), packed their picnic baskets and had the best time singing, dancing and signing along with Emma Memma, Elvin Melvin and their wonderful crew at their Cowra performance. 🧡🌿

Those of our CDF dancers who attended were also lucky enough to stay back after the show for a special private meet and greet, complete with the most magical photo opportunity with Emma Memma and Elvin Melvin! 🥹✨

Thank you for bringing so much joy and magic to our little corner of the world. What a special experience for our Cowra families! 🌈✨

We are still buzzing! 🐵🌿

The Jungle Picnic magic doesn’t have to end just yet… 🤩

You can still experience the Emma Memma Jungle Picnic Party magic throughout Term 3 right here with us in our Ready Set Dance classes! 🦁✨🐘

Join the fun now at www.cdf.dance 💙💫

Chookas to our beautiful CDF girls as they take on their HSC Dance practical exams! 🧑🏼‍🩰

We are incredibly proud of each of you.

These girls began their CDF journeys as preschoolers, learning to skip and now they’re leaping into their final school exams. What a privilege it has been to watch them grow 🌱

From little things, big things grow.

Go out there, enjoy every moment and show them what you can do. Your CDF family is cheering you on! 👏👏👏

Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. 🥹✨

Orange Eisteddfod is no small feat - the biggest and most competitive Eisteddfod in our region - and our Under 12s Showgroup team showed up ready to show how hard they’ve worked for every moment. 🧡

Through sickness, long solo routine dance days throughout the week and tired bodies, they banded together. They backed each other. They kept going. And they danced as a TEAM. 💙

🥇 1st Ballet (25 & 26 back-to-back years!)
🥇 1st Lyrical
🏅 Highly Commended Jazz

And behind those results is something we’re even prouder of. 🫶

The work. The commitment. The teamwork.

Some of these dancers are just 8 and 9 years old, yet they’ve shown maturity, resilience and heart beyond their years. All of our dancers have put in the work all year long and it has been so special watching them grow not just as dancers, but as a team. 🥹

14 strong.
One team.
So incredibly proud. 💙💫

What a way to finish their Eisteddfod year.
Congratulations to our Under 12 Showgroup team and a huge thank you to our parents and families for all of the time, travel, love and support of the girls ✨

Our beautiful Senior dancers are heading to the Orange Eisteddfod this Sunday! 🧡

These girls deserve their very own shoutout because what they’ve built together on and off the stage is something pretty special. 🥹

They’ve not only trained together. They’ve cheered each other on. Grown together. Made memories together. ✨

For some of our graduating seniors, it will be their final Eisteddfod as CDF dancers - making this one just that little bit more special. 🥹

Soak it all in and dance your hearts out. ✨

Chookas, Seniors! 💙

We’ll be cheering you on every step of the way! 💫

🥰💙✨

What a special morning we had on Friday 7th August when the beautiful Ready Set Dance students from Cowra Dance Factory came to perform for our residents at Weeroona. 💃🩰
Our residents absolutely loved watching the children dance, and there were so many smiles all around.
A particularly lovely moment was when resident June Fetherston, who was once a ballerina herself, got up and showed the young dancers some of the moves she can still do. June also presented the group with an appreciation certificate, making the visit even more special. ❤️
A big thank you to Cowra Dance Factory, the students, teachers and families for bringing so much joy to our home.

✨ Dance is better when it’s shared ✨

We love taking our moments of fun, laughter and dancing out into our community! 🥰

Last Friday, our Friday Ready Set Dancers swapped the studio for a very special visit to the wonderful residents of Weeroona Aged Care Residence. ✨

There were plenty of smiles, plenty of joining in and lots of fun with beanbags, bubbles, tapping sticks and groovy moves… plus our preschoolers showing off their super cool acro tricks! 🤸‍♀️

And a very special thank you to resident June, who shared her beautiful ballet work with us too. Also presenting us with a beautiful appreciation certificate. 🩰🥹

These moments are so special to us. We love seeing the joy our little dancers can bring, and even more, we love the connections they make along the way. 💫

A huge thank you to the wonderful team and residents at Weeroona for welcoming us once again. We had the BEST time! 😍

We can’t wait to come back and dance with you again soon! 💙

We’ve watched you grow, challenge yourselves, lift each other up and become a team - and we couldn’t be any prouder. 🥹
