Ballroom Fit proudly offers weekly Deaf and Hard of Hearing Dance classes, designed to be inclusive, welcoming, and accessible to participants who use Auslan or are hard of hearing.
Each session is presented by one of our two dance coaches with Auslan training. Both use Auslan and spoken English throughout the class. This ensures that all participants can follow along with confidence, feel supported, and fully engage with the learning experience. Whether you’re an experienced dancer or trying dance for the first time, you’ll be guided in a way that suits your communication needs.
The cost of the classes are $17 per one-hour session, and no partner or prior dance experience is necessary.
Many of our Auslan-speaking participants also enjoy our Vision Impaired Dance classes. These sessions are also accessible, with several coaches and dancers able to communicate using Auslan. You are warmly invited to give them a try, as they offer a fun, social and supportive environment for all dancers. You may wish to join the Ballroom Fit Vision Impaired Facebook group.
We also encourage you to explore additional dance opportunities by visiting the Para and Ability Dance Western Australia website. Their programs support people of all abilities, and you may find even more ways to connect with dance in the wider community.
