The Wiggles World of Dance

About The Wiggles World of Dance Beautiful Ballet

Developed by Industry leaders and Australian Ballet Dancers, Beautiful Ballet is a pre-introduction to our American Ballet Theatre National Training Curriculum and is a loveable dance program that aims to provide a guiding education to little ones from 12 months of age.

Beautiful Ballet will explore the fundamentals of ballet technique in a fun, creative and imaginative way allowing little ones to gain and understanding of ballet dance prior to beginning curriculum work.

In 2024 Brisbane Dance Theatre will be offering Beautiful Ballet classes to children 12 months to 5 years of age, Tuesday through to Saturday.

Each week will see progressive learning and understanding new components of Ballet fundamentals, steps & vocabulary. 

Each lesson will have an element of retaining knowledge from previous weeks through repetition and revision.

The Programmes

Our Beautiful Ballet classes will be held at our studios in Coorparoo and are run by our professional and classically trained teachers who are always patient and kind.  All teachers at Brisbane Dance Theatre are fully vaccinated, hold current BlueCard’s and are trained in CPR and first aid with ample experience teaching this age group.

We are an all-inclusive dance studio.  We encourage boys to join our classes and our studio colours, uniforms and programmes have been designed with this in mind.

• 12 months to 2 years - Red Ballet Dancers (30-minute lesson)

Parent participation is welcome.

• 3 to 4 years – Blue Ballet Dancers (45-minute lesson)

• 4 to 5 years – Yellow Ballet Dancers (45-minute lesson)

A few things to note:

• We ask you to trust us with your child.  To enable your child to focus and participate fully in the class without distractions, we find it easier if parents view our classes through our ‘watching window’ or go and enjoy a coffee around the corner while the class is on.  If your child does need some support from you as a parent, we will of course welcome you into the studio to ensure your child feels comfortable and confident.

• At the end of each term, you will be invited to watch our final class and be amazed at what your child has achieved!

• Students are required to wear the studio uniform to all classes (except for our Dress Up Week, which is held once a term).

• Classes are invoiced in term blocks and are refundable for medical reasons only.  You can find more about our fees here. (Insert link to fees page)

We love what we do and believe that by joining forces with The Wiggles World of Dance is the best and most exciting way to share our love of dance with you all.
