About Dance Kix
Located in Gladstone, Dance Kix is a comprehensive and family friendly dance facility. Our studio offers several dance styles for students from pre-school age through to adulthood.
Dance Kix was formed to provide a place of inspiration and creativity, to feed the soul and nourish the body. Fostering a community of kindness and inclusivity within our dance school is what makes Dance Kix different from the rest. Our values stretch beyond the dance floor and set our students up to be balanced, well adjusted and caring humans within our community.
When you first arrive, you’ll notice our studio bubbles with positivity! We have created a nurturing teaching environment that encourages students to adopt a growth mindset. This helps them to step out of their comfort zone and be courageous when trying something for the first time. For this reason, we tend to attract students of all ages, many of whom are very new to dance.
Dance Kix is customer focused to make life easier for students and their parents. We offer multiple communication channels and employ staff who are invested, informative, empathetic and understand the value of human connection.
“A flower does not think of competing with the flower next to it. It just blooms. ”
— Zen Shin
We encourage students to get to know their strengths and become self-assured, rather than seeking validation by comparing themselves to others in competitions.
Dance Kix strives to be recognised for excellence as a business and supporter of young children’s development. Dance Kix are proud winners of the National What’s on 4 Kids Awards in 2019 for Best Local Preschooler Activity and Best Customer Focus, winners in Gladstone’s Best In Business award for Best Individual Service and named Business to Watch in 2018.
