DNE FACULTY
DNE PRINCIPAL:
Jessica Young
Jess has had a passion for dance ever since her first dance class at the age of 2. Throughout her dance journey a career in teaching was always a clear and consistent goal.
After completing her HSC Dance, Jess progressed into studying a double degree in which she completed her Bachelor of Dance & Graduate Diploma in Secondary Education.
Beginning her teaching career over 12 years ago, Jess has a wealth of knowledge and experience in the dance industry. Throughout this time Jess has won multiple reputable awards for her choreography. Jess started teaching at Dance Network Engadine in 2014, where she quickly found the studio her home away from home. In 2019, Jess became principal, marking the beginning of a new chapter for DNE STUDIOS.
​
Jess has thrived throughout her role as principal, constantly developing and providing her students with endless opportunities to pursue their passion for dance. She thrives off seeing her students have fun, grow and achieve their goals together. Jess takes pride in nurturing a safe, family-orientated space where all students are supported.
