where little boys and girls love to dance
The world’s leading preschool dance program, Babyballet®, has landed at KRS Dance!
Our classes are held at our Studios in Kirrawee and at Engadine Uniting Church,
Sutherland Shire, but we warmly welcome everyone from the greater Sydney area!
Boys
The atmosphere of each class is wonderfully supportive and creative where children and parents alike are transported into a world of magic, fairies and make believe. Not only do these classes teach the girls and boys coordination, songs and fun dance moves but they teach them patience and the importance of sharing while capturing the imagination.
Girls
Each class is delivered with an ideal mix of dance and fun and is the perfect introduction to dance that allows each child to explore their love of music, movement and tutus. The genuine kindness and consideration shown by babyballet® teachers to each of the boys and girls, whatever their level and ability is so touching; adapting the dance scheme to fit each individual child's needs.
The Whole Family
Babyballet® involves the whole family as mum, dad and carers can have lots of fun joining in with our Tots and Tinies. It is a lovely opportunity to meet others and make new friends. With a researched and proven focus on learning through play, the unique babyballet® syllabus offers four key stages of ballet and tap classes where every child can build their confidence and social skills that will give them the tools they need to transition smoothly into new environments. The classes are so much more than dancing and will establish positive habits such as learning manners, discipline and respect while developing the foundations of technique, coordination, musicality, balance, posture and rhythm.
