Empowering children through dance.

Phoenix Dance Studios
thrive, learn & feel valued
Founded in 2013 by Candice Bandiera (BDE), Phoenix Dance Studios is now led by Emily Foley (RAD RTS) as of 2023. We proudly operate across multiple locations in two vibrant suburbs: Glenorie Public School and our NEW custom-built facilities in Dural.
With a focus on strong technique, versatility, and excellence, Phoenix Dance Studios and our team of fully qualified staff are dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and inspiring environment where students are encouraged to work hard and develop a passion for the performing arts. We believe that dance training helps young people build a positive self-image, enhance coordination, and develop muscular awareness, all while gaining the freedom to express themselves through movement.
Over the years, Phoenix has earned a reputation for excellence in dance training within The Hills region, with competition groups and soloists consistently placing at the national level. We take pride in every student’s development and celebrate their successes along the way.
As we celebrate 13 years of service to our communities in 2025, we remain committed to providing an inspiring space where students not only grow as dancers but also as individuals. Through our programs, we instill valuable life lessons about respect, commitment, discipline, and teamwork.
At Phoenix Dance Studios, we strive to be a second home—a place where all children thrive, learn, and feel valued. We’re more than just a dance studio; we’re a family.
