Empowering Wheelchair Users through Dance
Ballroom Fit proudly offers Para Dance classes explicitly tailored for wheelchair users. Our classes are inclusive, engaging, and structured to suit dancers of all levels — from complete beginners to those with competitive aspirations.
Para DanceSport is an internationally recognised sport governed by World AbilitySport. Through this pathway, our dancers have the opportunity to participate in local, national, and international competitions. Whether dancing for fun, fitness, or the thrill of performance, every participant is supported to achieve their personal goals.
Why not come and dance with us? After all, dancing is for everyone.
Our Para Dance classes are designed to develop coordination, musicality, posture, and confidence, all while promoting a strong sense of community and belonging. Support workers and family members are welcome to attend and assist where needed, free of charge.
