Why ballet? Ballet is a unique, special and fun way to keep fit, tone up and improve your overall sense of well being. It is an activity that is so easy to fall in love with. Ballet exercises are designed to assist you to improve your agility, coordination, flexibility, grace & strength. When taught well and with care, ballet can prove to be a very gentle exercise form and easily adaptable for a more intense workout if that’s more your thing. It’s the perfect exercise to work at your own pace and ability.

Do I need to wear/buy anything specific? If you don't have any ballet flats (ballet shoes), socks are absolutely fine to begin with.  Some people love to wear leotards and tights - brava to them and if you'd like to rock the same attire we would love it!  But we also love tracksuit pants, leggings, pyjamas or anything else that you feel comfortable to move in.

Do I need to have done ballet before? Absolutely not! Ballet was once only for small children and professionals but beginner adults across the world have claimed their right to join in this amazing exercise and artistic form. I am pleased to offer you beginner adult ballet classes here in Geelong.

Am I too old? No way! I offer really clear, informed, passionate and positive instruction. Class material is designed to be both manageable and enjoyable for you as a first time dancer.  There is nothing at all to be self conscious about - it's likely there will be many people in the class who are feeling nervous/excited. We start slow and we start gently. You are NEVER encouraged to work against your instincts. You know your body better than anyone else and we respect that and design our classes with this in mind.
