Dance Life

This series was a nice surprise - so much more than than a doco about, or for dancers (I am not a dancer!). The series follows the journey of a group of 18/19 year olds as they chase their dreams, and delves into the myriad of challenges faced by young adults as they find their way in life. It's a rare behind the scenes looks into a world I didn't understand, and you'll fall in love with the cast and find yourself rooting for them all to succeed. I found myself engrossed and binged in one night with my partner and 13 year old daughter, who also both enjoyed. It's raw and real, and a nice deviation form the over the top reality shows on TV today.

I loved loved loved this show! Hats off to the writers and producers for doing such a professional job . I binge watched the entire season it was so entertaining and the dancers were superb it was great to see them from the start and get to know them individually and see them grow not just in their dancing career but also their personalities. By the time it came to their graduation I felt like a proud parent myself. I think what those dancers go through on a daily basis to learn their craft and become great at it is very inspiring it is an extremely hard job that takes not just talent but a great strength and determination on a physical and emotional level and they deserve praise. Really hope there will be another season of this show.

Dance Life. A brand new Australian reality /doco style tv show about the intense world of competitive dance. Absolutely incredible! Highly recommend!! All young people should watch this. Really showcases hard work, dedication, commitment, self discovery and self acceptance. Fantastic messages and really genuine characters. My favorites are Emily, Max O and Tiana. Hopefully big careers ahead for these truly talented individuals. Such a refreshing watch in the reality television genre not to see scripted trashy drama. This felt real and raw. And the choreography is some of the best dance I have ever seen. Very impressive Australia.

This beautiful and skillfully-directed docu-series that follows a group of young dancers from one of Australia's premier dance schools is nothing short of exceptional. It is a thrilling and exhilarating insight into the world of these super talented and dedicated young individuals, their hopes, dreams, trials and tribulations. Expertly directed, produced and edited, it makes for exciting and heartfelt viewing. You can't help but fall in love with each of the featured dancers (and one of the main choreographers/teachers, Cassie) in one way or another. I was awe-struck and filled with nothing but admiration and emotion for these gifted people and their perseverance, passion and commitment to their art. Simply breathtaking. Highly recommend.

This show really showed just how hard dance is! As someone who wants to go and do dance professionally in the future I found it very motivating to keep going and to push harder. I loved following the different dancers around and seeing parts of their home lives, yet how we saw all their work behind their productions and showing just how much goes into their shows. Personally Max O was my favourite to watch, he just really gave something different that I hadn't ever seen before on stage or in the studio. I liked how it wasn't scripted or over dramatised like other dance reality tv shows. The best part was realising that it was filmed at Brent street as I've followed them for so long and love their work it was great to see what it was like to go there! The only thing I could ask for more from it was to see the other gradings and follow maybe two more cast members around. I would have love to have seen and learnt more about Brooke and Georgia.
