The world of performing arts is constantly evolving, and Spectrum Global Arts is leading the charge. Formerly known as Spectrum Dance Studios, this iconic Melbourne institution has rebranded to reflect its expanded scope, offering full-time, industry-focused courses that train the next generation of elite performers. From their Certificate IV in Dance to Diplomas in Musical Theatre and Dance Elite, Spectrum Global Arts is where passion meets professional opportunity.
At the heart of this transformation is not just a new name, but a new, cutting-edge home. Located in the vibrant arts hub of Richmond, Victoria, the new facility is set to inspire students to achieve greatness, combining state-of-the-art studios with a world-class faculty of industry professionals. Spectrum Global Arts is poised to become Australia’s premier training ground for those serious about a career in dance and musical theatre.
Full-time courses that build careers
Spectrum Global Arts is setting a new standard with their full-time courses, which provide students with an immersive, hands-on education designed to bridge the gap between training and a professional career.
Their Certificate IV in Dance is perfect for those looking to establish a strong technical foundation while also developing performance skills that will open doors to a variety of pathways in the industry. For students with a passion for singing, dancing and acting, the Diploma of Musical Theatre is the complete package, giving performers the versatility required to succeed in the high-energy world of musicals, cabaret and screen.
Meanwhile, the Diploma of Dance Elite takes dancers to the next level. This course is designed for those who aim to work at the highest level, combining technical rigour with creative exploration. Graduates leave the program equipped to perform in professional companies, international tours or commercial productions.
“We set out to create an institution that not only provides world-class education but also immerses students in real-world, professional experiences that propel their careers,” says Trish Squire, Director of Spectrum Global Arts. “Our alumni are already performing on stages across the globe, and with this rebrand, we’re amplifying those opportunities, expanding our reach, and empowering the next generation of performers to achieve even greater success.”
Richmond’s premier training facility
The new Richmond studios are a crucial part of this expansion. Boasting six fully equipped dance spaces, each featuring sprung tarkett floors, full-length mirrors and high-quality sound systems, these studios are designed to maximise the performance potential of every student. With additional facilities including a student lounge, kitchen areas and acrobatics equipment, Spectrum Global Arts provides an inspiring environment where students can fully dedicate themselves to mastering their craft and achieving excellence, but it’s not just the facilities that set Spectrum Global Arts apart. As a global leader in performing arts education, they offer direct access to professional networks, ensuring students have every opportunity to turn their training into a thriving career.
A powerful collaboration: May Downs School of Dance
Adding even more depth to the Spectrum Global Arts experience is an exciting new collaboration with the May Downs School of Dance. This partnership combines the strengths of two prestigious institutions to offer even greater opportunities for students to learn from leading instructors, develop performance skills, and expand their artistic horizons.
“May Downs has such a rich history of excellence, and together, we’re creating something even more powerful for our students,” says Trish Squire. “It’s an exciting time for performing arts education.”

In addition to its full-time programs, Spectrum Global Arts also offers private courses for those seeking tailored, one-on-one instruction. Whether you’re preparing for a major audition or want to fine-tune your technique, these private sessions allow students to work directly with top instructors to focus on their specific needs and goals.
