Welcome to Wessels Dance Studio
Wessels Dance Studio is a Classical Ballet, Modern Theatre, Tap, Contemporary, Musical Theatre and Hip Hop studio in the Montana Park and Waverley areas.
We focus on training and coaching all children in performance, and technique. We aim to train children in more than one dance form, teach them different techniques and prepare them for stage performance. The stage is the place where children will find their confidence, fulfil their dreams and feel comfortable.
2019 was a fantastic year for us at the studio with a 100% pass rate on all examinations, many of our students achieving distinctions in all styles. Our ballet students were all invited to perform in the Gauteng Cecchetti Awards - a very prestigious event. Not to mention of course, our wonderfully successful show where every one of our learners reminded us what a privilege it is to have the opportunity to dance.
2020 is going to be a very exciting year for us at Wessels Dance Studio, with the introduction of an internationally recognised Contemporary Syllabus. For the first time, we will have the ability to enter students for Contemporary examinations. We are also proud to offer Musical Theatre classes to our children who are interested in singing, dancing and drama combined. Our teachers are trained to the very highest standard and continue to improve on the knowledge through annual continued personal development.
We continue to strive for excellence in the education of Dance and Performance. It is with great dedication, passion and commitment that we endeavour to give every learner an opportunity to excel in their training, self confidence and ultimately their personal growth.
Kind regards

"My name is Lilanie Kluyts I am 21 years old and started dancing at the age of 3. Ever since I can remember I’ve always wanted to do this as a career. I want to perform, teach and choreograph until my body and brain decides that they’ve had enough! I studied dance and musical theatre at Oakfields College. During my 3 years in college I had the privilege to meet and work with amazing choreographers, performers and directors. I’ve trained in various styles and I’ve had the privilege to perform at the Ghoema Musiek Toekennings and The Naledi Awards in my final year of college."

Great dancers are not great because of their technique,
they are great because of their passion.
