LVC’s new Dance & Flex class is a specialist class designed to teach beautiful dance choreography whilst incorporating incredible tricks, technique and floor work inspired by calisthenics, gymnastics and acrobatics.
Calisthenics is an artistic dance sport that combines dancing, gymnastics, ballet and apparatus work. The word calisthenics comes from the Greek words “kallos” for beauty and “thenos” for strength.
Discover how to safely perform floor-based acrobatics as part of striking dance routines, giving you the chance to showcase flexibility, strength and balance, as well as dance technique. You will be amazed at what you can achieve with regular lessons and practise, and at creative and impressive ways that Dance & Flex techniques can be used to embellish dance choreography.
This is an open ability class – we encourage everyone to try it, regardless of your previous experience in dance or gymnastics. Your instructor will take you through technique and choreography at your own pace and students will work at their own level, monitored by staff, to ensure everyone can achieve their goals no matter what your level is!

I've never danced or performed before - will I be able to do this?
Of course! Our open and beginner courses are designed for complete ADULT beginners who have either never learned before, or are perhaps coming back after an extended break from the style. Check the
timetable to see if a more advanced class is available for you. If you wish to perform, you can participate in a spectacular showcase at the end of each year.

Your first Lady Velvet Cabaret trial class is $15 so you can try before you enrol. Any subsequent trials (including trials of other styles) will be billed at the $25 Casual rate. If you are looking to attend on a more casual basis, you should consider our Multiple Class Pass.
