CASUAL CLASSES IN 2026

For newer dancers, our classes are a good way to get familiar with QL2 and build skills and confidence to audition for our projects. Enrolling on a casual term-by-term basis gives young dancers the flexibility to create a dance program that suits them as the year progresses.


New to dance, or new to QL2? 

We encourage you to begin with our contemporary dance class, and pair it with the creative lab. This is the core of what we do at QL2, offering you the opportunity to develop your dancing and explore your creativity. 

Along the way you might choose to add a weekly ballet class to your schedule.

For those dancers considering professional practice, our extension contemporary class is designed to supplement the weekly Level 3 contemporary class.

For younger movers aged 4-7 we offer Creative Moves, a joyful, curious, non-confronting class to explore dancing.

You can find out more information about each of these styles here.


CASUAL REGISTRATION

Casual class registration is $250 per class, per term.

Casual fees are payable upfront, before attending your first class each term.

Please refer to the below regarding Attendance and Participation.  
  
INJURY OR ILLNESS – ONGOING   
If your attendance is severely impacted during the year due to ongoing injury or illness, please provide QL2 Dance with a medical certificate, and arrange an appointment to discuss.


Attendance and Participation

Attending class consistently will ensure the most efficient development for you as a dancer. We encourage you to attend class every week and participate fully.  
  
Attending classes is not just about developing your dance skills. Being active, belonging to a community and having a sense of purpose all contribute to good mental health. We encourage you to commit to classes for yourself, and as part of the QL2 community. For further information on the benefit of arts for mental health, visit this link.  
  
We encourage you to prioritise your dance classes as part of your regular routine, even when you are busy. Learning how to manage your time is another important life skill. When you have school or university deadlines, moving your body will give you a break and allow you to process information in different, perhaps deeper ways.  
  
What if I am injured, or not feeling well?  
Learning how to participate when you are not feeling your best is a good life skill. Often, it is still possible to participate in class, in a modified way. QL2 staff will support you to do this, when you need it.  
  
If you are unwell:  

  1. If you have active symptoms – including vomiting, diarrhoea, coughing, sneezing – please stay at home to minimise the risk of passing on your illness to others.  

  2. If you are feeling unwell but you are not symptomatic, we encourage you to attend and participate as best you can. Let your teacher know how you are feeling so they may help you adjust class content as required. Your participation may involve observing at times.  

  3. If you become unwell during class, your teacher may direct you to the QL2 staff member on site for support. If you are unable to continue, we may contact your parent/guardian to collect you before the scheduled end of class.  

If you are injured: 

  1. If you arrive at class with an injury, ensure this is communicated to QL2 staff and your teacher, before class begins. Your teacher may help you adjust class content as required. Your participation may involve observing at times. 

  2. If something happens during class, which impacts your ability to participate fully, ensure this is communicated to your teacher, and QL2 staff.
