A MESSAGE FROM AIMEE WHITTAKER

I have had the pleasure of teaching dancers who participate in Fulltime programs across Sydney and became very aware of the massive leap these dancers take when they graduate Fulltime training and navigate their first years of being a professional in the Entertainment Industry.

I remember those feelings when I graduated Fulltime so I wanted to create an environment where dancers are supported by community who have similar goals and aspirations.

I want to help dancers find their feet and help them be accountable for their training schedule, being responsible for their own self care and making decisions that hellp them actually achieve their goals!

My priority is individual support and mentorship for everyone who takes my program. No one person or career is the same and I want to nurture the different talents every person has to offer.

If this sounds like the community you need and the support you want, we would love to work with you!

WHO IS THIS PROGRAM FOR?

This program is for creatives and performing artists who are looking for a community of like-minded people to connect with and learn from.
