Our Classes
Fun, Fitness, Exams, Competitions: - Whether you want to learn for one, two or all of these reasons you are welcome to join us. You can start anytime of year, any age - four to adult.
The main classes are held on Saturdays during school terms in the Heatley side of Kirwan, Townsville - in the vicinity of Western Lions Park.
Classes are broken into several groups with some classes overlapping. We are a small studio with small classes. Class overlapping eases progression through levels covering similar work, and eases traffic flow in a residential area. Parents are welcome to unobtrusively observe anytime.

Classes 1 and 2 include reduced capacity dance time in the last section of class to allow the muscles to 'cool down' and reduce muscle fatigue while still allowing time to keep up to date with all dances.
Syllabus/Technical classes are held weekdays after school by arrangement. While Saturday classes mainly focus on performance of dances, the weekday technical class focuses on exam syllabus and technique (coaching type). Technical classes are for exam and competitive students or for those who want to progress at a faster rate and enhance fitness levels.
Term fees are invoiced. A 5% discount is offered for early full term fee payment. Other conditional concessional reduced fees are also offered, including a substantially reduced fee of $6 for second child and subsequent siblings.
