Little Dancers Program

Two dancers from Little Dancers Program

At Newcastle Ballet Theatre, we believe in nurturing young dancers from the very beginning. Our Little Dancers Program is specially designed for boys and girls to explore their creativity through movement. Through this program, little ones will not only build coordination and enhance fine motor skills but also gain confidence and make new friends in a friendly and encouraging environment.

With a variety of beautiful music to inspire them, the young dancers will have the opportunity to develop their own unique style and discover the joy of self-expression. Join us at Newcastle Ballet Theatre and let your child's dance journey begin!

Pink Goes with Everything – Little Dancers Concert

Our Little Dancers have been working hard all year, and now it’s time for them to shine in our special end-of-year performance, Pink Goes with Everything! This delightful concert is the perfect opportunity for friends and family to see just how much progress our young dancers have made. We can't wait to celebrate their achievements on stage!

Browse Our Classes

While the main focus of all these classes is ballet, they also include creative movement and we have now introduced a new Jazz class.

Our little dancers begin to learn correct ballet technique cleverly coordinated, with the use of props and beautiful ballet music. They also get to be creative, use their imaginations and have lots of fun.

  • Your child can wear any existing dancewear they have in their wardrobe. If they don't have any, clothing that's easy to move in is perfect.

  • Absolutely! We welcome students at any time and will pro-rata their term-pass fee from the date they join.

  • It is good to arrive at least 5 minutes before class so that your dancer is settled and does not feel rushed.
