Get your dancing shoes on

Join the Australian Ballet education and outreach team in Geelong these school holidays for an all-abilities dance workshop to keep you entertained and get your creative juices flowing.

In a storytime dance workshop with the Australian Ballet, ‘Dancing Story’ gives children the unique opportunity to explore ‘The Story of Pomi and Gobba’ through dance.

With four age groups for your kids, each group will have the opportunity to watch a free performance these holidays, as well as joining a fun and inclusive dance workshop.

Supporting confidence, resilience and teamwork skills in individuals of all ages, skill levels and physical abilities, no previous experience is required for young kids, while teens are recommended to have a small amount of experience.

Children should wear comfortable clothing for movement, wear bare feet or dance shoes, bring a water bottle, and must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
