Statement of Commitment to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People
The Space, located in Prahran, Melbourne, Australia, hereby acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we operate, the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, and pays respect to their elders, past, present, and emerging.

As a dance studio committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse community, we recognize the unique and rich cultural heritage of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We are dedicated to promoting and celebrating their history, traditions, and contributions to the arts.

This commitment is an ongoing journey, and we acknowledge that there is always more to learn and do. We invite feedback and engagement from our community to help us improve and deepen our understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.

The Space commits to actively promoting reconciliation, cultural respect, and a strong sense of community that embraces the diversity and uniqueness of Australia’s First Nations peoples.
