Changing the dance world one step at a time.

Supporting equal opportunities for all ages and abilities.

Stars Within is a new inclusive boutique dance studio that provides excellent training, instructors and opportunities for dancers of all ages and abilities. Our main focus is to provide fun, stimulating and interactive environments that allow for the imagination and creativity of our students to flourish. We strive to give people with disabilities living in Australia equal opportunities in all aspects, including the dance world, to flourish and exert their creative potential.

Classes

At Stars Within, our teachers are prepared to meet the unique needs of each student. Each class is tailored to suit the abilities of the students and are great ways to promote social inclusion, physical therapy and learning through dance.

Performance opportunities

Showcase your talents on the big stage! We provide many opportunities across the year to allow our students to perform at a variety of events.

Dancing in the community

Custom classes at local schools, day programs, sensory gyms, or events. We allow all dancers to move at their own comfort, accommodating to the participants and putting their needs first always.

  • "I cannot speak more highly of Vanessa, she really made my children feel comfortable given their different dance abilities. She really knows how to engage the children, keep their engagement and build their self confidence with words of encouragement and praise. Vanessa has a real passion for dance and a fun energy. I would highly recommend Stars Within for anyone looking for a dance class.

  • "My daughter absolutely loves dancing in miss vanessa's class. She has tried several mainstream classes and found them too difficult to continue with. Stars within is very inclusive and vanessa will run the class based on how the kids are feeling on the day. If they need a break from dancing and need to run and fidget she will follow their cues and play games with them to get their energy out and help them focus. I absolutely recommend stars within inclusive dance."

  • "I cannot speak highly enough of this dance studio they make the children feel heard and seen. both my children feel comfortable there and heard. Miss Vanessa is amazing. She models her classes around the children's abilities and how they feel on the day. She follows the cues of the children. My son has never found a place where he has felt included and comfortable until he found stars within at a disability expo he went to with his support unit at school. He always wants to attend class. And his baby sister is so excited to be attending her classes too. We are like family. Thank you for making us all feel so welcome and are glad to be part of the stars within family."
