Learning

ADT’s Learning program seeks to connect emerging artists, students, educators and young people with our company, creating a direct link from the stage to the classroom or the studio.

Led by Learning and Engagement Manager Adrianne Semmens (Barkindji), our learning program is based upon the principles of care, inclusion, and accessibility.

Throughout the year we present a comprehensive program of workshops for schools, professional development sessions for teachers and a range of community focussed initiatives.

Student Workshops

Inspiring the next generation of dancers is central to our mission at ADT. We run workshops throughout the year. We host workshops at our home, The Odeon, we travel to schools and we work in communities.

Workshops are offered alongside our performance seasons and are available on-demand throughout the year.

Study Resources

We create high quality digital learning resources for each work in our performance repertoire. Aligned to the Australian curriculum, these resources assist educators with integrating the complex thematic content of our work into their lessons.

Our learning resources are currently being digitised. Check back here for updates.

Professional Development

Throughout the year, we offer a suite of professional development workshops for primary and secondary teachers. Understanding that often teachers work broadly across a variety of subjects, our professional development workshops tackle everything from dance fundamentals to movement theory to devising and improvisation.

Acknowledgement of Country

Australian Dance Theatre acknowledges the traditional owners of Kaurna Yerta. We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and community and we extend this respect to first peoples across the land. We pay our ongoing respects to them, their cultures and their elders, past and present. We acknowledge the ongoing significance of dance as cultural practice, as interconnected with story, song and country.
