Description
Welcome to the We are 6th Position podcast! 6th Position is Canberra's leading dance studio for adults aged 16+. Since opening in 2017, we have provided a safe and nurturing environment that welcomes everyBODY to dance. For our adults who are new to dance, 6th Position has provided them with an opportunity they thought had passed them by. For those continuing to dance, our studio has provided a space where they can continue their dance journey on their own terms. And for our adults returning to dance, 6th Position has provided a second chance at a relationship that was never really over. We are 6th Position tells the extraordinary stories of the ordinary adults who make up the 6th Position community.

Starting ballet - or anything new, for that matter - is daunting enough, as it is. For starters, you have to start at the very beginning, a place most of us haven't seen since childhood; there is this thing called 'coordination' you have to grapple with while attempting to do so with 'grace'; and on […]

One day, Julia realised for all […]
Let's be frank: making friends as an adult can be an excruciating social experience. By the time we reach adulthood, most of us have established social circles or are quite comfortable with our own company, thank you very much. Sometimes though, new friendships can be found in unexpected places with the most unexpected people. For […]
