THE BLUEPRINT
The complete coaching system for dancers pursuing professional careers.
Designed to prepare dancers for the physical, mental and professional demands of the industry through performance training, nutrition, mindset and career guidance.
YOU'RE DOING EVERYTHING YOU WERE TOLD TO DO.
SO WHY DON'T YOU FEEL READY?
You've spent years training.
You take class. You work on your technique. You show up to auditions. You try to stay fit. You tell yourself all you need to do is be more confident.
But there's still that feeling that you're not quite ready.
Maybe you walk into auditions wondering whether you're strong enough, fit enough or prepared enough to keep up.
And when the jobs aren't coming as quickly as you'd hoped, it's hard not to wonder what you’re missing.
You don't need to want it more.
You need to know what to work on.
You’re not stuck because you’re lazy.
You’re not stuck because you don’t want it badly enough.
And you’re not stuck because you need to take another ten dance classes a week.
The problem is that most dancers spend decades in class…
while almost nobody teaches them how to prepare for the physical, mental and professional demands of the industry.
So they keep doing more of what they already know - class, auditions, trying to be more confident…
But those things don’t solve the gaps that are actually holding them back.
That’s exactly why we built The Blueprint.
PREPARE DIFFERENTLY.
The Blueprint brings together the areas of your development that are usually treated separately — so instead of guessing what you should be working on, you have a clear plan built around you, your career and where you're currently falling short.
There's a version of you that already exists, who walks into an audition room with confidence, books the job, and moves through the industry like they belong there.
That version of you is already in there.
You don’t need to earn them. You don’t need to chase them.
You just need the structure, guidance, and support to trust them — and let them lead.
The Blueprint is a 12+ week personalised coaching experience where we walk alongside you, helping you build the physical strength, mental resilience, and career direction to finally feel ready for the opportunities you’ve been working so hard for.
You’ll work 1:1 with a coach who’s been exactly where you are (and come out on the other side with success) and together we’ll create a plan that helps you move forward with clarity, confidence, and momentum.

💬 FAQ’s
-
The Blueprint is perfect for dancers who are ready to take their training and career seriously — especially if you’ve recently graduated from full-time dance and want to fast-track your progress.
It’s for you if you’re looking for structure, expert guidance, and someone in your corner who truly gets it. We’re here to cheer you on, keep you accountable, and remind you every day that you’re capable of more than you think.
If you’re ready to stop guessing, stay consistent, and have a coach who won’t let you quit on yourself — this is for you.
This would also work for:
Someone who has recently graduated from full time training
Someone who hasn’t done full time, but is a very confident dancer and is looking for some structured guidance from a professional
Someone who is currently in full time and wants to level up their progress
Someone who has completed full time a few years ago, and wants to reignite their flame

Both options include everything: personalised training, nutrition, and mindset coaching.
The only difference is these two additional inclusions in the In-person Mentorship:
Weekly gym sessions in Richmond, VIC
Access to our exclusive Showreel Filming Day.
Online Blueprint still provides 1:1 coaching contact time with Weekly Performance Calls — ideal for interstate or international dancers.
-
Absolutely. Many of our Mentorship clients work with us online from around Australia and overseas. You’ll receive the same level of personalised support and weekly contact via Zoom and our app.
-
If you're doing online Mentorship, access to a gym or basic equipment is highly recommended to get the most out of the program. We can tailor the plan based on what you have.
-
Our nutrition coaching is completely personalised — no cookie-cutter plans here. You’ll start with an in-depth questionnaire so we can understand your body, goals, training load, and history. From there, your coach will guide you with structured plans, meal ideas, and ongoing support to help you understand how to fuel your body for performance, recovery, and long-term health. It’s all about education, not restriction.
-
Every coach is fully equipped to guide you through the full Blueprint experience. You won’t miss out by choosing one over the other — but each coach brings their own style and lived experience, so we recommend picking the one you resonate with most. Not sure? We can help match you!
-
Mentorship starts from $65/week, with pricing depending on whether you choose online or in-person coaching, and whether you train 1:1 or in a small group.
Once you apply or book a discovery call, we’ll walk you through all the options so you can choose what works best for you.
-
The Blueprint is a minimum 12-week commitment so we can create meaningful progress in your strength, mindset, and career development. After that, many dancers choose to continue for ongoing support — but there’s no pressure.
-
The program runs initially for a 12 week minimum commitment.
After your first 12 weeks, you can choose to continue or stop at any time.
To cancel, email hayley@athleticdancecompany.com with at least 2 week’s notice before your next payment.
There are no refunds on past payments due to the nature of the coaching.
