Frequently Asked Questions

Our studios provide full visibility with viewing windows plus a live feed to the TV in our waiting area, so you’ll always be able to see the classes in action. Young students may need caregiver support in the room when first commencing classes and our team will work closely with you on this to ensure a positive experience.
-
Absolutely! We are all about making dance accessible. If you have any concerns about giving us a whirl, reach out for a chat so we can support you.
-
No. We value our team and the time and effort they put in to make sure you have a great first experience with us. Trial classes are $15 for children or $20 for adults, per class.
-
Yes, absolutely! For all age groups (except our Move with Me toddlers), we offer two performance opportunities per year. Our Midyear Concert is very relaxed – we all sit on a gymnasium floor, admission is a gold coin donation, students wear their class uniforms and share some things they’ve been learning in classes. The end-of-year concert is an exciting event held in a professional theatre with tickets, costumes, and lights. Additional costs apply for end-of-year concert participation and costumes are yours to keep.
-
No, the concert is not compulsory, but we do encourage participation because it is a positive and empowering experience for students of all ages.

Senior ballet students may complete external examinations with the Australian Teachers of Dance (ATOD). Students in Prep to Grade 6 may participate in a Medal Test (internal examination) for each of their classes. Medal tests are not compulsory, but we encourage participation as it is a wonderful experience and gives students the opportunity to feel a sense of pride in their achievements. It is also a great way to track progress and receive feedback from an external dance professional.
There is an additional charge for medal tests, which covers the examiner/s fees as well as student report cards, certificates, and medals. A prize giving for all medal test participants is scheduled and additional awards and trophies are presented to outstanding students, as selected by our examiner.
