The Creative team is responsible for setting the scene for APDA each year through the creation of an exciting syllabus accompanied by inspiring music.

The team consists of extremely talented and very experienced leaders who have not only achieved great heights in the Physie and Dance worlds but importantly in their professional lives as well. They have been selected as leaders in their fields, each one with a passion for Physie and Dance, and an understanding of what can and should be achieved through the APDA syllabus.

We set new high standards of choreography in Physie and Dance, that are technically correct and in line with safe dance practice.  This ensures that our syllabus is both appropriate for age and experience, yet surprising and delightful for participants and spectators alike.
