How Dance Classes Actually Work

A dance class turns a hens afternoon or a milestone birthday into a shared performance, and the group goes home with a routine and plenty of photos. Both studios on this page are in Melbourne's Inner North and run private classes, so the room belongs to your party for the whole booking.

Bottoms Up Dance Brunswick, in East Brunswick, teaches 75-minute party classes in pole and other styles, from $40 per person. The group learns a routine that gives the guest of honour a featured part, then everyone performs it to the room. The studio provides the props and dress-ups, and the studios have mirrors, poles and a sound system.

Maison Burlesque is a boutique studio on St Georges Rd in Thornbury, taking private groups of 8 or more for hens and birthday workshops. Guests are greeted with bubbly, learn a routine with feather fans and tassels, and the person being celebrated gets a gift pack. It is listed for adults only, and groups of 15 or more can take a bigger package with food, drinks and entertainment.

Choosing between them comes down to:

Style: fans and tassels in Thornbury, or pole and other styles in Brunswick
Group size: Maison Burlesque needs at least 8 guests
Price: Bottoms Up Dance Brunswick publishes a starting price, while Maison Burlesque quotes on request
Occasion: both host hens and birthdays, and Bottoms Up also runs team nights

A class makes a good first stop on a longer hens party, with dinner afterwards at one of the hens party venues.

A warm-up, then the routine taught step by step
A featured moment written in for the guest of honour
A run-through performed for the rest of the group at the end
Props supplied, so guests only need to bring themselves
