Classes For Ages 3-5

These classes are designed for our youngest students to explore movement to music through songs, games, and stories.

Kinder Dancers

Day(s): Saturdays
Time: 9:00 am
Ages: 3 – 5 years

In Kinder Dancers, we’ll explore the world of dance through song, movement, props, games, and giggles—fostering confidence, trust, social-emotional growth, and a pure love of moving to the beat. Each 45-minute session for ages 3–5 begins with playful warm-ups (think animal walks and rhythm claps), then flows into imaginative storytelling, cooperative games with scarves and shakers, and a free dance segment where every child’s expression is celebrated.

Throughout the class, children build gross motor skills, coordination, spatial awareness, and rhythm in a joyful, inclusive environment. Guided cool-downs wrap up each session, with a sweet reflection moment where dancers share what made them smile, feel brave, or wiggle with delight. I can’t wait to meet your child and watch them shine as they discover movement, friendship, and the joy of dance!
