Stompin

Stompin is a Youth Dance organisation that has been successfully creating a non-competitive, creative environment for young people grow as artists, individuals and citizens through their connection with contemporary dance for over 27 years. Stompin works with young people of Tasmania to create and produce exhilarating dance and arts experiences.

A fixture and stalwart of Tasmanian dance and arts ecology, Stompin is the starting point for many Arts Professionals’ trajectory into long-term careers within the arts sector. The company has also seen significant National recognition and traction through its projects and artistic development processes.

Stompin is unique in its performance culture. The environment we generate focuses on cultivating a non-competitive dance environment to help develop young Tasmanian artists, to educate and inspire them for a life either in the arts or as an appreciator of the arts which then filters into the broader, National cultural landscape.

Our performance culture brings together our Youth Dance company members with industry professionals, to share their artistic practice and methods and encourage our Stompers to pragmatically integrate different styles when developing their own practice.
