What Makes All That Jazz Different From Other Dance Schools in Singapore?
Mathew Ward • March 14, 2026
Singapore has no shortage of dance schools. So when parents are choosing where to enrol their child, the question is always the same: what makes this school different? At All That Jazz Dance Academy, we hear this question often — and we think the answer lies in a few key things that, together, create something you will not find anywhere else in Singapore. From the breadth of our programmes to the depth of our teaching standards, from the quality of our facilities to the warmth of our community, here is what sets us apart.
A Genuinely Wide Range of Programmes
Many dance schools offer ballet or jazz. Some add hip hop or contemporary. At All That Jazz, we offer ballet, jazz, tap, street dance, contemporary, musical theatre, acro, lyrical, and commercial — all under one roof. And these are not casual add-ons. Each programme is led by a dedicated Head of Department, follows an internationally recognised syllabus, and has its own structured progression pathway. This means your child can explore multiple genres without changing schools, and they can do so knowing that every class is delivered to a consistent, high standard.
Internationally Recognised Training Standards
We partner with some of the most respected examination and training bodies in the world. Our ballet programme follows the ISTD syllabus, jazz and tap follow ADAPT, contemporary is supported by Rambert Grades and an exclusive partnership with London Contemporary Dance School, musical theatre prepares students for Trinity College London examinations, acro follows the ADTA framework, and street dance aligns with RSL Awards. These are not just names on a brochure. They represent structured, progressive frameworks that give students clear goals, measurable outcomes, and internationally portable qualifications.
Five Studios Across Singapore
Convenience matters for busy families. All That Jazz operates five studios across the island — at Forum The Shopping Mall on Orchard Road, 10 Winstedt Road, Dance on Us at Claymore Hill, i12 Katong on the East Coast, and our Performance and Competition Training Centre at 36 Prinsep Street. With locations spread across central, east, and city areas, most families can find a studio that fits their schedule and commute.
World-Class Teachers Who Care
Our teaching team is made up of internationally trained professionals who bring real-world dance experience into the classroom. Many of our instructors have performed and trained across the UK, Australia, Europe, US, Canada, and beyond, bringing diverse perspectives and deep expertise into every lesson. But just as important as their credentials is their commitment to each student. Our teachers know their students by name, understand their individual strengths and challenges, and take genuine pride in helping them grow. This is not a factory — it is a community where relationships between teachers, students, and parents are valued and nurtured. Each programme is led by a dedicated Head of Department who oversees curriculum quality, teacher development, and student progression.
A Track Record of Excellence
All That Jazz has grown from 10 students in 2014 to over 1,500 today, with a dedicated team of 50 staff supporting our operations. Our competitive teams regularly win at major events including Get The Beat, Origin, and Evolution. We have an exclusive partnership with London Contemporary Dance School, providing direct pathways for students who wish to pursue dance at a tertiary level. And our annual recitals at Mediacorp Theatre give every student — recreational and competitive — the chance to perform on a professional stage. But perhaps the best measure of our success is what our families say. Parents consistently tell us that their children build lasting friendships here, develop genuine confidence, and carry the lessons from dance into every other area of their lives. That kind of impact does not come from a programme alone — it comes from a culture that values every student.
