Our intro to dance! We have a TON of fun in this class focusing on following directions, fundamentals of movement with gross and fine motor skills, and learning how a dance class operates. Dancers will learn very introductory basic movements associated with ballet and even be introduced to some light tumbling exercises that would lead into our acro program!
This class starts with a fun warmup/stretch, some across the floor work, follow along songs, free dance, dancing with props or ribbons, and the biggest hit is our super fun obstacle course that includes skills they are learning in class!
