Our Staff
New Generation Dance Studio is a respected leader in the dance community in Orange and beyond. Our staff is made up of qualified teachers who are very passionate about dancing and teaching. They have trained with numerous choreographers and are confident, well-rounded performers themselves who love to pass on their knowledge and artistry to the students.
Lindsay Punch
Studio Director and Teacher
Heading up the New Generation team, Miss Lindsay brings an incredible wealth of experience to both the role of studio principal and dance teacher. Lindsay is fully qualified in all genres of dance, also holding the necessary qualifications to mentor our more junior teachers through their teaching examinations. As well as this, Lindsay holds a Diploma in Childcare, with over 14 years experience in the industry. You won't find many other teachers around with the knowledge base Lindsay has, and, coupled with her caring nature, she is a force to be reckoned with. Miss Lindsay is also an active member of The Orange Theatre Company, having both directed and performed in their shows.
Jamie Kaye
A Truly Exceptional Dancer, Teacher and Choreographer
The very knowledgeable Miss Jamie halls from a 'studio kid' background. Having grown up dancing under the tutelage of her Mum & Nan, Jamie moved away at 16 to further her dance education at Queensland School of Excellence, Brent Street Studios and various training institutions through the UK. Unfortunately, due to injury, a career was not on the cards and Jamie returned home and completed her teaching qualifications. Jamie has over 16 years of teaching experience under her belt, with qualifications in dance, drama, fitness/conditioning and make-up art, allowing her to have a unique set of skills to bring the table. Jamie is an amazing choreographer who can create beautiful, energetic and emotional pieces across all genres. She is a very valued member of the staff.
Amelia Punch
Teacher
The brilliant Miss Milly is well & truly the 'new generation' coming through. Having trained under her Nan, Mum & big sister, she is now finding her own path as a teacher and performer. Amelia excels in all genres, having completed examinations in ballet, jazz, tap, drama & singing. She is a wonderful performer with many awards and Scholarships under her belt from Eisteddfods and is actively involved with the Orange Theatre Company, also regularly attending industry workshops. Milly achieved her first teaching qualifications in 2022 and has completed her next level of qualifications in 2023. There are big things in the future for Milly, and we are excited to have her as part of the New Generation team.
