​

Can we start mid‑term?

Yes. New members can join anytime, with fees adjusted accordingly. Our teachers help new students settle in.

Is physie suitable for boys?

Physie is traditionally female‑focused, but boys are welcome in our younger classes. Contact us to discuss suitability.

How much do lessons cost?

Classes start from $10. Term fees vary by age group and the number of weeks in the term. Visit our Fees page for details.

​ 

How is my age group determined?
