Dance Theater Arts is a comprehensive performing arts company specializing in Dance and Movement. We believe that participation in Dance can greatly benefit all people, in terms of physical and mental well being. Moreover, Dance also offers youth a healthy focus in their choice of recreational activities, and instills in them a sense of discipline and self-motivation.

Our Artistic Directors have trained professionally in prestigious College and Vocational dance institutions abroad. They have extensive overseas performance and teaching experience. They are also highly skilled in acrobatics and Musical Theatre.
Our Recreational Program is modeled after good dance schools in Australia and USA. All recreational classes are based on the Russian Ballet training system that ensures a standard of technique necessary for the Royal Academy of Dance and Australasian Theater of Dance examinations. The program is unique in Singapore. It combines a recreational environment with elite teaching and training methods that enables students to attain a high standard of performance. It encourages students to be highly self motivated to achieve their full potential not only in dance but also in approaching their other activities.
Accomplishing a strong ballet foundation is crucial to becoming an outstanding dancer in any dance or movement style. Thus our ballet training provides a good foundation for students to take on all styles of dance under the varied Dance Styles Program that we offer. The emphasis of our recreational programs is on performance and artistry while maintaining a correct and safe approach to technique, insuring that young bodies are physically ready to perform moves of increasing difficulty. The guiding principles of the Russian Vaganova Method enables a dancer to develop the flexibility, strength, endurance, muscle memory, discipline, and attention to detail that are essential to his or her growth as a dancer.
In addition to the many dance styles offered by Dance Theatre Arts, our Young Performer’s Program is unique in Singapore combining Dance and vocal skills. This program highlights the strength of our Recreational training program. Modeled after established programs in Australia and America, the Song and Dance program has proven to enhance students’ academic ability in language and mathematical skills. Through the Young Performer’s program, students are trained in classical ballet, Jazz ,contemporary, acrobatics and gymnastic skills, vocal and music reading skills.
Dance Theatre Arts offers a positive environment where every student is made aware of their individual capabilities that enables them to strive for excellence to the very best of their abilities. We, in turn, will always strive to make a positive contribution to the lives of our students. We will achieve this by giving students the individualized guidance and attention to which they are entitled; while instilling the value of commitment, respect, hard work, discipline, and artistry.
As a performing company, Dance Theatre Arts is uniquely positioned as a modern neo-classical contemporary dance theatre company in Singapore, with dance performers who can take on varied movement repertoire and theatrical demands.
