Storytime Dance Class
(Ages 2.5+)
If you are looking for a dance class that keeps your kiddo moving, grooving and burning off what seems to be endless amounts of energy, you really have come to the right place!
This introductory class teaches foundational dance technique from various genres including ballet, jazz, tap, hip hop and musical theatre in a learning environment that understands that kids NEED to move to learn.
Children will develop stamina, strength, endurance, balance, rhythm & musicality and leave each class with smiles on their faces, begging to come back!* Ballet slippers or jazz shoes are highly recommended.
Ready, Set, GROOVE! (Ages 3-5)
Our sessional classes are a great way to introduce your little one to dance and try new and different genres without making a full year commitment. We offer a diverse selection of Sessional dance classes for children ages 1+. Our classes are age and developmentally appropriate, and because we believe that play is the foundation for learning, all dance skill development at this age is grounded in play-inspired movements, imagination, exploration and musicality! We encourage dancers to come back for multiple or repeated sessions as children will grow in confidence, independence and skills each time they come!
