Training at CCA

With consistently proven results, many of our Graduates are now dancing in the world’s most prominent ballet companies, including Dutch National Ballet, Paris Opera Ballet, Teatro alla Scala and The Australian Ballet.


CCA students are developed as artists through exceptional training and inspiring youth company performances. Daily classes include classical ballet, pointe, repertoire, contemporary, pilates/body conditioning and pas de deux, as well as exam preparation in both the Cecchetti Method and Royal Academy of Dance.

CCA is also the home of Brisbane City Youth Ballet and RB Corp. Instruction — two youth platforms that provide our students with the opportunity to perform in three major productions annually, staged at professional theatres, mirroring professional companies.

All students study academic subjects through Cairns Distance Education or a private school of their choice, and work towards an ATAR score.
