Fundamentals are not easy, but they can be fun and engaging. Our children's classes are tailored to meet the developmental needs of children according to their age. Teachers employ pretend play, visualization, and safe stretches to help young dancers learn. Activities that tap into children's natural abilities build their physical, social, and cognitive skills.

Dance and music prepare your child for a life rewardingly engaged with bodily movement and community. 

Children's classes prepare students for the world of dance through music and movement. In Wee Dance and Creative Movement, preschool and kindergarten-aged kids build coordination and muscular patterning in age-appropriate stages that will benefit them for a lifetime.

Wee Dance and Creative Movement are where ballet starts. 

Movement practice and developmental exploration are valuable for their own sake, but they also prepare a dancer for a successful experience studying classical ballet and modern dance in later years.

Dancing forms the mind as much as it develops the body. Development-focused children's dance classes harmonize self-expression and skill-building while growing respect for peers and the learning environment. 

Multiple Classes

There is no replacement for the benefit that can come from students taking multiple classes per week. Young children can take additional classes at the same level. As kids become more comfortable and familiar with classes, their movement imaginations expand and physical coordination grows.

Please note that all children in the room must be enrolled in this class.

In progressive levels, children ages four to six develop increased body awareness, gross motor skills, and phrasing while giving imagination time to flourish. Classes begin with warm-up exercises and stretches that develop flexibility and posture. Class then moves on to center floor exercises to develop balance, rhythm, and coordination.

Creative Movement 1: 30 minutes. Students must be four years old on or before September 1st.
