Introducing The Academy
Big news this term! Alongside our regular Friday and Saturday classes, we're launching The Junior Ballroom Academy, our elite training program designed for junior dancers with their sights set on high-level medals and competitions.
The Academy gives your junior the focused, high-performance training to get there, taught with the same energy and encouragement Ballroom Baby is known for.
And here's the best part: Academy students can keep attending our junior social classes too, at no extra cost.
More dancing, more community, no compromise.
Debutantes
One of the most exciting nights of your teen years deserves proper preparation. Ballroom Baby runs all debutante dance training for IGBY Productions' 12 annual deb balls.
Click below to navigate to their site to find your ball, then we'll see you at training.
School programs
From a single one-off lesson to a full term culminating in a spectacular performance night, Ballroom Baby designs custom dance programs to fit your school's curriculum.
We'll bring our best teachers straight to your school to instruct students of any age in our favourite art form, waltz, tango, cha cha, jive and everything in between. We can even train up your school's own staff, so they can keep the magic going long after we've left.
