Thats Dancing
• Platinum gold awards at Hollywood Bound in Melbourne 2016 - Our Opens Performance Troupe were selected to compete at a national dance competition in Melbourne, coming up against the top dance schools from across the country. Receiving a platinum gold award and a score of 98+ for their performance of ‘Ghost Town’, our Opens students note this as one of their fondest THDA memories.
• Interstate locations opened 2016 – Opening up studios in Darwin, Gold Coast, Canberra. THDA enjoyed five years of success spreading our love of dance across Australia. However, Renee realised her heart was in SA and as of 2021 has decided to bring her business ventures back to her roots.
• Radiance of the Seas, Royal Caribbean Cruise 2019 – Setting sail to the South Pacific, 27 of our THDA team performed their 70s/ 80s/90s extravaganza on the Royal Caribbean Radiance of the Seas cruise ship to sold out audiences and standing ovations. The months of rehearsals certainly paid off, with dancers receiving glowing reviews from the ship’s passengers and staff members alike!
• Candance Competitions – A favourite pastime for many of our dancers, the annual ‘Candance for a Cure’ has always been a fantastic production for THDA to take part in. In 2019, we were invited to perform at their 10th anniversary, dancing at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre in front of an audience of 1000+!
• Disney & LA Dance Tours – Undoubtedly one of our most exciting highlights to date, we have taken THDA teams to Disneyland Los Angeles in both 2013 and 2016. Performing within Disney, Universal Studios and Downtown LA, the dancers delighted audiences with a 30 minute self-choreographed showcase. All performers were welcomed to partake in Disney’s very own workshops and also at Millennium Dance Complex and Mather Dance Company.
• Brighton Jetty Classic Performances – After originally performing at the Channel 7 Brighton Jetty Classic back in 2014, the directors were so impressed by THDA that we have been asked back every year since to dance and entertain the huge crowd!
