We’re so excited that you’re considering joining LBA! To get started, simply sign up for a free trial class (or classes) here. This gives your child the chance to explore different dance styles and performing arts to discover what truly excites them.
After the trial, we’ll send you all the details to book for the rest of the term. Sibling and multi-class discounts are applied automatically. Term fees are managed through a simple subscription system, which spreads the cost of 40 weeks of timetabled classes into 12 monthly direct debit instalments.
It’s easy, flexible and we can’t wait to welcome you to the LBA family!

Plus, we offer the first class as a free trial, so your child can try it out and see how much fun they have!
While we don’t offer refunds for missed classes, if your child can’t make it due to illness or something unexpected, reach out and we’ll see what we can do. We want to make sure they don’t miss out!
