I took DD (nearly 18 months) to a Babyballet trial last week. We already do a swimming and music class (she loves both) and otherwise fill our times with toddler groups and playdates (I am a SAHM) but I thought it might be nice to try something new. The class was friendly and fun but a lot of focus on turn waiting and staying on the mat, both of which (but particularly the latter) were tricky for DD who just wanted to explore the room. She was the youngest there by 6 months and it really showed. She definitely wasn't able to follow many of the instructions, despite generally being very good for her age at following commands. I'm unsure whether to go again. I have friends who rave about Babyballet but their children are in the 6-18m class so maybe that is less structured? Can I ask for people's experiences of it and when their DC were best able to enjoy it? The location and timing suit us very nicely and maybe I should be aiming to give DD more structure(?) but I'm not sure I want to continue if I'm going to spend every Friday trying to hold DD in one position for the forseeable.
