Danzworx Dance School has been part of the Upper Hutt community for 30 years, under the direction of the wonderful Katrina Robinson-Reidy. In 2025 Danzworx became part of Arts a Go Go, still under the creative leadership of Katrina.

 

Classical ballet technique has long been the foundation of poise and grace. Danzworx offers classes following the NZAMD syllabus with the opportunity for exams. (The teacher will confirm.) Students also work towards a dance for the Danzworx stage show. Ages for each class are a recommendation based on child development and the teacher's discretion.

 

The core principles at Danzworx encourage students to:

 

Gain Confidence

Increase fitness

Increase body awareness

Achieve a positive and confident attitude in all areas of life through movement and music.

 

We are inclusive and supportive and believe that our teachers and students work together to create a class environment of security and fun.

 

Head teacher Katrina and the dance teachers share their passion for dance and their enthusiasm for teaching with each and every one of their students. 

 

"Dance is a fundamental need for all and to be able to utilise movement as a way to communicate needs and allow expression of self is incredibly empowering. I'm so privileged to be a part of these journeys." - Katrina

 

Parents and caregivers may observe the Danzworx classes. If staying, we do ask that parents and siblings do not affect the concentration and creativity of the children as they build confidence in the performing arts.
