Twinkle those toes and let’s make some noise. Tap teaches students how to move and tap with rhythm so it becomes a melody as opposed to just noise and learn how to also complement the music and match the rhythms. Common tap steps include the shuffle, time steps, slap up’s, and wing’s. Also, mums and dads, see our Adult Tap class on the timetable, you can’t let the kids have all the fun.

From a lifelong dream to a professional reality, my journey in dance has taken me from Perth’s JMDC to the Hamburg Staats Opera Ballet School. As a CSTD National Champion and multi-award winner across jazz, tap, and classical styles, I’ve performed globally from Europe to Asia.

Today, as the Director of Ambiance Dance Company, I channel that same passion into mentoring the next generation. My background as an elite Les Mills National Trainer allows me to blend high-level dance technique with fitness programs like Pilates and Yoga. Founded in 2005, our Landsdale studio is a family-run "home" built on discipline and heart. My mission is to walk the walk—inspiring students to reach for their dreams with the same fire and grit that fueled my own career. Create, Express, Inspire.

Our Ethos
Under the Directorship of Tania Sibon-Bourke and the highly talented teaching faculty, Ambiance Dance is creating the “triple threat dancer” that can dance, sing and act. Since the commencement of Ambiance Dance in 2005, our vision has always been to create a family rather than just a dance school. A place where students feel nurtured and supported along their dance journey will allow them to dream big and achieve more than they ever believed they could.

Our ethos at Ambiance Dance is to Create, Express and Inspire. We help students create their futures, express themselves as individuals and inspire them to achieve. We do this by creating a fun, inspiring, energetic and motivating atmosphere. Our dance family is a community that teaches more than dance.
