Personalised, Professional Vocational Ballet Training, Coaching and Mentoring
At the end of the programme, graduates will have achieved technical and performance excellence. We are preparing our future artists for the Australian and international ballet companies. The Ballet Arts Academy’s alumni will have the tools to shape the future of dance, in a way that will resonate with and reflect the world and future cultural realities that are yet to come. Moreover, this unique programme allows the dancers to achieve broader career opportunities in the growing creative industries, as performance excellence extends over many inspiring career paths.
The Ballet Arts Academy continually builds and maintains successful partnerships with world-wide dance organisations, to provide the best opportunities for its students.
Through Jacinta’s connections, she has the ability to create career opportunities for dancers with professional ballet companies, leading world dance universities, international ballet and contemporary dance intensive programmes such as:
• Preljocaj Ballet
• Singapore Ballet company
• The Juilliard School in New York City.
• The Paris Opera Ballet - Grand Stage d'Etoiles à Paris

Ballet Arts Academy’s programme and teaching practices are conducive to maintaining the students’ psychological well-being in order to foster their best artistic and personal potential. The holistic nature of the dance programme emphasises the importance of harmony and integration between the participants’ artistic growth and the academic, social, and psychological aspects of their lives. The dance training works hand in hand with these other aspects to build the whole person and see them thrive. True excellence is achieved when young dancers are given the best possible holistic education in creative environments.

“Guiding the growth of students, not just as arts technicians, but as total human beings, incorporating the social and psychological aspects of their development, and catering to each student at his/her level of skill.”
Developing the dancer’s physique and freedom of artistic expression is a highly specialized art of coaching and mentoring. The Ballet Arts Academy’s master teachers carefully develop, intuitively refine and constantly take care of the dancer’s physique, like a musical instrument. At the same time, the dancer is encouraged to value their innermost being and understand how nurturing the self is essential to achieving personal excellence, thus leading to the realisation that:
“A body alone cannot produce any dance, it requires a human personality, in the same way an instrument alone – even a Stradivarius violin - cannot produce any music, but requires a musician”
- Anne Woolliams
Jacinta’s objective is to nurture every student’s individual and unique qualities so as to help each of them to develop into their own best artist. Accordingly, every child’s experience at The Ballet Arts Academy will be artistically and culturally enriching, through artistic integrity and professional relationships.
This is how The Jacinta Walsh Ballet Arts Academy builds the foundations for each student to inherit its powerful future legacy as emerging artists.
