The Australian Ballet Is Now Running Drop-In Dance, Yoga and Pilates Classes
Learn how to pirouette and perfect your Pilates moves with practising professionals.
If you want to learn to dance, you may as well learn from the masters. And now the Australian Ballet can get you Nut-Cracking, even if you're not a trained dancer. The organisation is running drop-in classes at the Primrose Potter Australian Ballet Centre in Melbourne.
And it's not just ballet that's on the agenda. Sure, you can don your tutu and get a-pirouetting if that's your calling. But there are lessons in pretty much every other genre too, including contemporary and Broadway-style dancing. Also on the program is Pilates and yoga, so you can keep yourself stretchy and calm in-between dance sessions.
All classes are casual, cost $15 per pop and run the year through. So, you can turn up — or not — at your leisure. Right now, there's even an intro offer that scores you a week's worth of lessons for free too. Don't forget to send us a vid if you manage to master that curbside scene in Singin' in the Rain or score a role in La La Land Vol. II.
The Australian Ballet runs casual classes Monday to Thursday at the Primrose Potter Australian Ballet Centre, 2 Kavanagh Street, Southbank. For more info or to book-in to a class, visit australianballet.com.au.
