Have questions about Dance Cirque, Little Cirque, Little Acro or Acrodance?

Check out our FAQ’s

All of our Dance Cirque, Little Cirque, Little Acro and AcroDance teachers must undergo training before delivering the programs and maintain the training with on-going courses, training updates and support from Dance Cirque and Acrobatic Arts Head Offices. They also all must hold a valid Working with Children Check and CPR and First Aid Certificate.

Little Cirque will learn how to juggle using scarves and balls. They will learn basic tumbling skills such as forward and backward rolls, cartwheels, donkey kicks, log rolls, and more. Students will also learn a variety of skills on the aerial silks, and continue to learn more as our aerial trapeze is introduced over the year. The program also incorporates fun with play elements to help with their development. It is very interactive and has lots of elements to help get children ready for big school such as; identifying colours, answering to their name, following instruction and so much more.

We recommend starting from no younger than 2yrs old.

Although students are in the one Little Cirque class, there are 2 main age groups within this program, 2-3yrs, and 4-6yrs which students will follow their age specific level cards

In Little Acro, all students are again in the same class. Although they don’t have split age group level cards, they will be given age and level appropriate skills.

Each program is catered to that age group and where they are in their development. That is why we always ensure multiple teachers in each class which keeps students within their appropriate age groups and development requirements.

Both classes run for 45 minutes

Apart for having bubbly and friendly staff that just LOVE their littlest students, we ensure our classes have upbeat music, bright coloured props and a few other secret ingredients!

We also use equipment and stations to ensure they are constantly moving such as a balance beam, acro mats ( for their acro skills ), hula hoops, tunnel and juggling scarfs. Another way we both engage and educate our students is through the use of picture paddles. These pictures they use to identify animals for warm-up such as; run as fast as a cheetah or jump as high as a kangaroo. We also use them to help your little ones find their station such as; jump like a bunny to the tunnel.

We always ensure there is always a trainer at each station to ensure that they are doing the skill correctly and safely. This is also to ensure if a child does run to the equipment they can be stopped by that teacher at the station.

There is a set of skills and drills in each level after they successfully complete the card they will then get a certificate and move up in levels.

This is the same for Little Monkeys, Dance Cirque and AcroDance classes

No, it doesn’t matter as we encourage each student to work at their own levels within the class. We work in a circuit rotation allowing the students to work at their own pace through the progression cards and skills with the teacher.

At the end of each semester (term 2 and 4) we invite families into the studio to watch their lesson and see all of the incredible things that their student has learnt.

No it is not gender specific. Little monkeys has something for every child and allows them to interact with other students. It has many interactive elements which is suitable for all genders such as identifying different animals.

Throughout our experience over the past 34 years and with the support of our families, our classes at Maxi-Jazz are purely focused on learning for our students. To ensure that this learning environment is 100% right for them, our studio rooms and classes are exclusive to our students only.

Our families at Maxi-Jazz absolutely love the class progression notes they receive on the amazing parent portal and are thrilled to look at the videos and photos that they receive each year.

Here at Maxi-Jazz, we believe that we offer a quality dance education for all students and we’re proud to stand behind our curriculum and classes.

We understand that choosing the right dance studio for your family is important, and that’s why we’re offering all NEW students to Maxi-Jazz an Introductory Month with a Money-Back Guarantee! We are sure that you will love our teachers, classes and feel a part of our dance family straight away.

As new students and their families enter our MJDS dance family, they will be welcomed and supported by our nurturing team. Each student will settle in their classes and become familiar with their new environment, teachers, and class curriculum over these first few weeks, which is why we offer this introductory month, instead of just one lesson.

However, if after one month you feel the student did not receive any positive outcome and gain confidence within the classroom, we will happily refund you your monthly fee.

Please see our terms and conditions for more details.
