Our Approach
At The Ultimate Beat, we pride ourselves on running fun, quality classes where your child can learn and grow with each session. Classes are always extremely professional and care is taken to make sure that each child receives individual positive feedback. Our teachers also make sure that classes are prepared and that each session is fun and interesting for all involved. Our classes focus on developing each individual, working closely with them to build confidence in our sport.
We have been running our classes since 2006 and officially moved to our own premises in Belmont in 2013.
