At WADPA (Whangārei Academy of Dance & Performing Arts), we’ve been proudly nurturing Northland dancers for over 40 years. Whether your child is twirling into their very first ballet class or preparing for a professional dance pathway, we offer a space where every dancer can shine, grow, and belong.
We are more than a dance studio — we’re a dance family.
What makes WADPA stand out?
• The only studio in Whangārei offering all genres of dance under one roof
• Qualified teachers and UK-based BTDA syllabus with exam and performance opportunities
• A nurturing environment where creativity, discipline, and fun come together
• Open classes and exam pathways for both recreational and career-focused dancers
From preschool ballet through to vocational training, our programs include more than just dance steps — we foster confidence, connection, and creativity that lasts a lifetime.
