About The Ann Roberts School of Dance

The school, founded in 1957 by Miss Ann Roberts AO, is now in the hands of her daughter, Jane and her husband André Reynaud. Jane has nurtured many students who have gone on to professional careers in the performing arts sector, and many who have held dance close to their hearts after their time with the school. As the Principal of The Ann Roberts School of Dance, Jane Pirani leads a team of dedicated and talented teachers to deliver the very best dance instruction possible. These classes are a mix of ballet, jazz and free movement.
