OUR CLASSES

Ballet

Our dance studio in Darwin caters to all children and teens and all experience levels with many genres to choose from, so if you or your child have a love of dance, you are sure to find something to suit.

Ready Set Ballet is for budding ballerinas aged 2 to 5 years old. This 30 minute class helps develop coordination, creativity and confidence while experiencing the magic of ballet and learning the fundamentals of the genre. 

As students progress into Junior classes they are introduced to the renown ATOD (Australian Teachers Of Dancing) ballet syllabus. We offer multiple ballet classes throughout the week for our students between the ages of 6 to 18. Ballet is foundational to all styles of dance and it is a discipline, our teachers are educated in making the ballet class experience educational, structured and sprinkled with fun.

Everything you need to know

Ballet is one of the world’s most beautiful and revered art forms. Adults and children alike will love building on a foundation of basic movements set to beautiful music as they grow their strength and abilities. While it can be challenging at the higher levels, this traditional dance form is a pleasure to learn for all ages. Students who take ballet classes build self-control, body awareness and self discipline as they learn to master increasingly technical moves.

The FOundational BEnefits

Dance is a wonderful way to exercise, push your limits, socialise, and express yourself. Dancing develops and tones muscles and improves circulation, posture, balance, coordination, core strength, and flexibility. Dancing also helps develop mental strength and focus: it takes mental effort to master technique and remember different routines while performing in time to the music.

Attending ballet lessons will have multiple positive impacts, including providing a sense of movement, rhythm, and appreciation for dance as a discipline and an artform.

  • Ballet gives dancers a strong technical foundation for all other dance styles thanks to the strict discipline involved in producing clean, clear, and polished lines and movements.
  • Attending a ballet studio from a young age with a qualified and experienced ballet instructor will help with learning clean techniques for turns, jumps, leaps, and extensions that carry over into all other dance styles.
  • Ballet also develops strength, control, body awareness, lateral movement, footwork, and agility that will aid gymnasts, ice skaters, and other athletes. We are sure that whatever you choose to do in the future, your ballet technique will come in handy!

We accept dancers at all ability levels. Our youngest students are 18 months old and will begin in our Pre-School section, where they will learn the basics of dance styles in a class full of fun and learning.

  • For ages 6 and older, we have classes based on skill level for acrobatics, contemporary, hip hop, jazz, tap, and ballet within our academy division.
  • Our classes are small with a maximum of 15 students per class to ensure that our instructors can give personalised training and attention to our students and develop strong bonds with each dancer.
  • We have a Performance Stream for dancers who are 6 years and older and want a greater dance experience by competing and performing in a team environment. We split our Elite Teams and Hip Hop Crews according to age groups. Dancers receive technical training in their technical classes and at the end of each year, invitations to join a performance team are sent out by the teachers.
