Our community focused Children’s Ballet Classes offer a joyful introduction to classical dance while supporting ongoing development and progression for all children. Designed to spark creativity, confidence, and a lifelong love of movement as children grow, these school term-based classes blend fun and learning through music and dance.

Led by West Australian Ballet Current and Former Professional Dancers and Teaching Artists, classes take place in the beautiful studios of the West Australian Ballet Centre. The program emphasises the enjoyment and artistry of dance rather than formal exams, grades, assessments or performances — no audition is required.

The program will run during the school term with enrolments determined by your child’s current primary school year.

Enrolments are online. If you have an existing Momence account with West Australian Ballet, you must add a child to your account. Navigate to the term dates and book into the desired class. Please ensure you book your child in for the class.

If you do not have an existing Momence account with West Australian Ballet, please complete the enrolment form and return to publicclasses@waballet.com.au. We will be in contact to take payment and finalise your enrolment.

Children’s class enrolment levels are based on the child’s 2026 primary school year.

West Australian Ballet will use best endeavours to transfer an incorrect enrolment into the correct class if a place is available in the correct class. If no places are available in the correct class, fees paid will be refunded, less a 10% cancellation fee.

In all other circumstances, West Australian Ballet has a no refund policy on classes. Exceptions to this rule are at the discretion of West Australian Ballet, and only after the provision of a valid medical certificate.

West Australian Ballet may cancel a class if an inadequate number of students are enrolled. A refund will be issued should this occur.

Please note that enrolments will be for the term booked. A new enrolment must be made for each term.

Make up classes for classes missed for any reason are not permitted.

West Australian Ballet does not provide individual feedback on any child outside of scheduled classes.

Regular dance wear can consist of leotards, unitards, tights and ballet skirts. If you don’t have dance wear, we advise your child wears fitted yet comfortable gym or yoga clothes, with long hair tied back.

For footwear, we ask students to purchase ballet shoes (either canvas or leather), but bare feet are fine for the first class only.

Unfortunately, we don’t sell shoes or dance wear at West Australian Ballet, we recommend Costume & Ballet Centre in Mount Hawthorn or Ballet Boutique in Dianella. There are several other dance wear retail stores throughout the Perth metropolitan area, or online.

Socks are not permitted in classes please ensure you remove any street shoes before entering our dance studios.

It is very important that you don’t wear any body lotions, sunscreen or hair products to classes at West Australian Ballet, as this can rub off onto the floor during stretches or floor work and over time make the floor slippery and dangerous.
