If you haven’t danced since you were a child, we recommend trying the Level 1 class which is run on Tuesdays 11.30am-1.00pm in Mornington and again 6.30pm-8.00pm in Frankston if night is better for you. If you progressed to a higher level in ballet as a child, you could come instead to Level 2 which is on a Saturday at 10.45am-12.15pm in Mornington, or to the Level 3 class at 1.00pm-2.30pm on a Tuesday in Mornington.
