Brolga Dance Academy is an Aboriginal dance school located in the heart of Redfern on Gadigal land. We provide a cultural connection and journey through dance to the local and surrounding communities. Specialising in Aboriginal Contemporary and Traditional classes, our students will discover culture through body movement as a tool to discover the intricacies on words and language, practices, lore, values and stories of the Aboriginal people.
We are proud to be an 100% owned and operated Aboriginal business, using Aboriginal dance teachers and delivering an authentic culturally safe and professional service.
No dance experience is necessary! Join us for a lot of fun, good exercise and invaluable cultural connection and learning!
