overview
What is Dance Academy about?
At Sydney's National Dance Academy, a few talented youngsters are recruited for the excruciatingly tough course.

Jewish long line of doctors' heir Samuel 'Sammy' and minor juvenile offender Christian are the outsiders but gradually fit in, making new kinds of friends. Star ballerina's daughter Kat also introduces them in the circle of last-year brother Ethan, who already aspires a career as choreographer. Also Abigail, a smart young girl who'll walk over dead bodies to reach the stars tries to sabotage everything and everyone. It blends comedy, drama and family elements. The series reflects a distinct Australia and Japan style and perspective. The story is shaped by its creators, Joanna Werner and Samantha Strauss.
