The Australian Ballet Is Now Running Drop-In Dance, Yoga and Pilates Classes

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.
