EARLY EDUCATION

​​

WAITLIST: Intro to Dance, 1st - 5th:  Interested in dance classes, but not ready to commit to a studio and exorbitant fees? Want an active outlet for your child during the day at Village? Do you have a child that just LOVES to move and dance? I danced ballet 15 years and absolutely love the art of dance. Having a child that needed physical therapy and seeing the importance of balance, flexibility, and movement in a directed space has opened my eyes to the need for accessible spaces for children to feel empowered to learn how to move their bodies through space. We will dance and be silly, we will learn how to stretch and build strength and flexibility safely. We will learn Ballet terms, positions, and how to flow through movements to song. We will also learn a little of the history of dance and ballet. The goal will be to perform a dance for the end of the year showcase.
