​Our classes for ages 2.5 - 6 are full of magical fun and creativity!!
​Using our imaginations, energetic and well composed music, and many fun props that
captivate our little's attention, our boys and girls "chasse, skip and jete around the garden",
as all children naturally love to do! Our class plan includes many
different activities to hold a wiggly child's attention, and to fully
explore within a wide array of movement patterns and musical themes.
We begin dancing into the studio to flowing classical music, then begin bouncing as the
music changes, and then move on to a seated floor warm up with props to capture attention
as well as to engage listening ears and warm up our muscles, then stand to perform ballet
fundamental exercises suitable for the bodies of young dancers.
Rather than simply memorizing steps, our children are encouraged
to express themselves through movement in a variety of ways - stretching, extending, turning, bending, , contracting, rising, lengthening, balancing and so much more!
Amon the many various benefits for the changing bodies of our little ones are
improved focus, balance, spatial awareness, flexibility and coordination.
Equally important for the developing brains of little ones are an appreciation for good
music, leadership skills, counting abilities, patience (in this "I want it now" world),
and relationship building through social connection.
We know that all young children have strengths,
which we like to call their "Super Powers", and we
strive to find and enhance the "Super Powers" in each child who
joins us at in our studio.
Classes are offered at various times - morning, afternoons and evening on weekdays and
as well as mornigs and early afternoons on Saturdays. Giggles and Wiggles classes do not perform, however, our Creative Dance class students may perform if they choose to, and will shine
onstage in our INB performance at our beautiful theater
in June, which is an absolute delight to watch!
