Sebastian, the organiser of Danceworks Queenstown & Arrowtown, has been at the heart of the local dance scene for over 20 years. His dance school, nestled in the beautiful regions of Queenstown and Arrowtown, is dedicated to offering top-notch dance education for everyone, from toddlers starting at two years old to adults.
Sebastian’s studio provides a wide array of dance styles, including jazz, ballet, tap, hip hop, contemporary, and musical theatre. Whether you’re new to dance or looking to polish your skills, Danceworks has classes for all levels. For those seeking more tailored instruction, personalised one-on-one or small group classes are also available.
Sebastian’s philosophy is that dance is more than just competitive sport; it’s a passion. At Danceworks, the focus is on boosting fitness, flexibility, strength, and coordination, all while building teamwork, friendship, self-esteem, and confidence. He encourages students to express themselves through dance in a safe and supportive environment.
Feedback from the community has been overwhelmingly positive. Parents often see remarkable growth in their children's confidence and abilities. The end-of-year show is always a highlight, where students proudly showcase their hard work and dedication.
Recently, Danceworks released a new mobile-friendly website, making it easier to keep up with classes and events. For a sneak peek at the vibrant dance community, follow their Instagram.
