CLASS-DESCIPTION.jpg

The babyballet syllabus is an award-winning international UK non-traditional preschool ballet syllabus with a non-competitive approach to preschool ballet basics, and is much more than a dance class with 16 years of research into early learning dance education.

 

The same syllabus is currently taught in over a hundred babyballets in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and now Papua New Guinea. The ballet class consists of at least 9 to 14 different creative exercises immersed into a 45 minute class.

Children's learning also includes counting, colour, posture, socialising, discipline, confidence etc.

 

Quality props are used in class.

Here's what you can expect from babyballet® classes:

Connect with other parents whose children are of a similar age.

Establish a routine that benefits both you and your little one.

Encourage your baby to achieve their developmental milestones.

Gain inspiration for engaging activities to do with your child at home.

Cherish one-on-one time with your little one, creating precious memories together!

Our classes provide the opportunity for babies and young children to learn to dance and develop key life skills in a healthy, sociable, caring and safe environment. babyballet® is so much more than just a dance class.

New students are welcome to attend their first class trial before committing to a term.

Due to currency exchange rates for AUD babyballet License fees and quality studio hire costs, as well as sourcing quality props from Australia etc, the cost of bringing babyballet to Papua New Guinea is dear, however the unique experience is well worth the investment into childrens creative education and personal development etc.

 

Any classes children miss during the week can be made up at any other class during the week at other locations, so they never have to miss a class!
