Children’s Division
ages 2 1/2 - 7

Classes for this age range are designed to spark children's interest in dance by encouraging creative exploration of movement and music. Dancers are introduced to basic dance concepts through age-appropriate instruction that builds listening and social skills, rhythm, spatial awareness, motor skills, and a lifelong love of movement and physical activity.

Each class meets once weekly, and dancers participate in a spring dance showcase in early May.
