Best Night Classes in New Zealand

"It can cost as little as $5 to look into the galaxy and see millions of different stars, what a bargain! The Astronomical Society is such a fun place to be at, surrounded by like-minded people who have a love for the world we live in. In summer (because of daylight savings) it’s open from 7.30 on clear nights; and the best part is, you don’t even need to book, just turn up! Although if your planning a large group trip it’s best to book ahead!"

"Lilith and Alexandra are two tribal belly dancing gurus! As well as private and group classes, they also offer entertainment for hen’s nights, staff parties, and even weddings if that’s your thing! I’ve always wanted to take a belly dancing class at least once in my life and I think I’ve found the right one! They love combining a sense of freedom with skilled movements to create this dance, it’s only $10 per session or $80 for a whole term."

"Technically this isn’t a night class BUT it is held in the afternoons! This is one I would personally love to do, I am a foodie and this could even be a fun date night idea (which I will definitely be trying!). The prices range from $25 to around $90 depending on what ingredients your paying for. Tickets are required to be bought beforehand, in advance if possible due to the classes being so popular!"

"This society is dedicated to those who love the earth and are fascinated with how it works; it has the interests of everything from palaeontology, to historical studies, to volcano enthusiasts! They also have multiple conferences, with the annual one coming up at the end of November; so now is the perfect time to join! The best part is the cost, it’s only $80 for a full year of membership, and everyone meets on the first Monday of every month."

"Have you always wanted to get your body toned, or even just become more flexible? Pilates New Plymouth is your best bet to achieve your goals. Their night classes start at 6.30pm; perfect for those who work 9 to 5! I love how they have small sized classes so you can really be one on one with the instructor; you’ll also feel less intimidated with less people if it’s you fist time! Just make sure to book so you’re guaranteed a spot!"
