Creative Movement for 3 year olds
This class helps develop the basic dance skills of 3-year-olds through songs and games of dance. Basic ballet intro is taught, without the focus on technique at this young age. Children are also encouraged to express themselves in individual ways through dance. Along with movement skills, the structure of a dance class, (standing in line, waiting one's turn) is learned. This is a fun and creative environment to introduce your young child to music and movement.
