Confidence, Fun & Foundations for Young Dancers
At The Hills Dance Factory in Dural, our Junior Groovers program is designed especially for children aged 8 years and under. This age is all about energy, curiosity, and developing stronger foundations in dance — and our program gives kids the perfect balance of fun, technique, and friendship.
Choose the Right Stream for Your Child
At HDF, we offer three exciting “streams” to suit every dancer’s needs and goals:
Fun Stream – Ideal for kids who want to enjoy dance alongside other sports or hobbies. Classes are once or twice a week and focus on fitness, friendships, and having fun.
Team Stream – Perfect for passionate young dancers who want to take their training further, gain stage experience, and represent HDF at eisteddfods and community events.
Ready Set Dance – Our award-winning preschool program (for little siblings aged 2–5).
Not sure which is right for your child? We’re always happy to guide you.
