Fun, upbeat, pop music is the soundtrack to a sport that fuses dance styles such as jazz, ballet, hip hop, contemporary, aerobic dance and even yoga! Our innovative choreography changes annually and is designed for maximum variety and fun.
Physie (also known as Physical Culture) is the perfect combination of movements designed to increase strength, fitness and flexibility. The benefits are increased co-ordination, brain development and confidence.
Physie is a synchronised, team-based sport for all ages that’s social and fun and an excellent low impact dance and aerobic activity.
Affordable and Welcoming
Your local Physie club is run by dedicated teachers who provide classes for all ages and abilities from pre-schoolers to ladies.
Designed with Australian families in mind, classes start from $6 a week with an annual registration of only $99. With no expensive costumes or recital fees, Physie is an affordable way to learn to dance and keep fit with a touch of glamour and a lot of fun!
It’s a Girl Thing!
Grandmothers, mothers, daughters and grand-daughters can all be members of the same Physie club and share their involvement in this unique sport. From ages 3 to 93, Physie is a sport for life. Our clubs cater to all ages and abilities so Physie is an experience you can share right throughout your life.
Generations of Australian women have cherished the friendships and close-knit bonds that Physie creates. More than a sport, Physie is a welcoming community of fun, healthy, active families.
Empowering Girls for Life
There is an aura of confidence around Physie girls of all ages. Taught to stand tall, with strength and pride, they are team players committed to achieving their goals.
Unlike some ballet and dance studios, BJP Physie focuses on developing the self-esteem of its students. By teaching them to have a positive relationship with their bodies, we help students blossom with confidence and self-assurance.
BJP Physie is passionate about nurturing students’ total wellbeing, in both mind and body. Physie is an accepting and encouraging team sport, where every member is supported and motivated to be the best they can be.

131 Years of Australian Physical Culture
With 150 clubs, BJP Physie is Australia’s longest running and premier Physie organisation. Founded over 131 years ago as the Bjelke-Petersen School of Physical Culture, BJP has proudly inspired generations of Australians to exercise both body and mind through this remarkable sport.
“I am so lucky to share this wonderful sport with my two sisters and daughter. I get to enjoy watching my daughter’s passion for Physie grow, just as mine did, and I love that we have such a special connection through Physie.”
“I’m so glad that a friend convinced me to take my daughter to her first Physie lesson. It gets her moving, off her devices and it improves her posture, confidence & flexibility.
“Ten years ago, I went looking for a fun and affordable dance sport for my 4 year old daughter. We found Physie and have never looked back!”
Physie is an elegant way of developing fitness, grace and strength in girls and women. At BJP, we are proud of how Physie weaves its way throughout the lives of Australian families. Generations of women have discovered a true sense of community and a sport for life.”
“My daughter absolutely LOVES Physie and so do I! Above all else, Physie has allowed us to join a beautiful network of amazing women.”
“I began Physie at the age of three and have loved it ever since. Physie has taught me to be creative and confident but the best part is the lifelong friendships which I treasure!”
