For a first class, your child just needs comfortable clothes they can move in. Wear something that makes them feel good. Our uniform is black and red, so if your child would rather blend in, black is perfect. You don't need to buy anything until you've decided to stay.
The trial
New students can trial two weeks of classes, in one style or several, at $15 a class. There's no lock-in, and trials run in any term. You only pay for the classes you actually do.
What to wear
- Comfortable clothes that are easy to move in (leggings, shorts, a fitted T-shirt)
- Black is great if your child wants to look like everyone else
- Hair tied back
- Bring a water bottle
Once you decide to continue, you have three weeks to get the uniform. Everything is in our uniform shop, and there's a shop at the studio too.
Drop-off: why parents don't stay
Parents don't come into the room, and there's no viewing area. Children focus better without an audience, and they love telling you about class afterwards. For little ones, learning that Mum or Dad leaves and comes back is a healthy step. Baby Bop parents often grab a coffee or chat in the car park during the 45 minutes.
If your child is nervous
That's normal. Teachers keep every child safe and cared for. If a child doesn't settle on a first visit, a teacher brings them out so the studio stays a happy place, and you try again next week. Nervous children are usually skipping in, excited, within two or three weeks.

Questions parents ask
What should my child wear to their first dance class?
Something comfortable and easy to move in that makes them feel good. Our uniform is black and red, so children who'd rather blend in can wear black. You only buy the uniform once you decide to continue.
Can I stay and watch the class?
No. Parents don't come into class and there's no viewing area. Your child will tell you all about it afterwards.
How long do we have to get the uniform?
Once you decide to stay after the trial, you have three weeks to get the uniform organised. It's available from our shop.
What if my child gets upset?
They're kept safe and cared for. If they don't settle, a teacher brings them out so the studio stays positive. Nervous children are usually skipping in within two or three weeks.
