Creative Movement & Dance (3 - 5)

The class is designed as a young child’s first independent movement class. Instruction will include warm-ups exercises, basic elements of dance an dballet positions,  across the floor movement, and a creative dance through the use of stories, props and games. Age appropriate songs and dance forms from around the world are also incorporated into this class. Benefits include listening skills and concentration, increased coordination, and an understanding of movement, i.e. time, space, directions and balance, social skills and development of creativity.

This session is designed not only for instruction but with a sweet and free recital at the end of the session. All dances and practices will be in class. All teachers and community Center staff will be helping to curate a wonderful performing experience for our dancers of all ages.

Dress in layers as it can go from chilly to warm fast! Being dressed and ready for class is part of the experience and encourages focus and participation.
