Creative Dance for children ages 2.5 to 5 will be held Wednesday, February 6, 2019 through May 1st! These classes will allow students to use their imaginations and result in fun memories for years to come!
What is Creative Dance? This is a form of dance that uses rhythmic, patterned, or improvised body movement, and it’s one of the oldest art forms found in every culture around the world.
Dance is often accompanied by music, but it’s also a form of nonverbal communication and self expression because when people feel free to move their bodies without judgment, you often get a glimpse of their innermost thoughts and feelings.
Dance and creative dance can benefit people of all ages. • Gain confidence • Develop healthy self esteem • Learn problem-solving skills • Learn cooperation when working in a team • Learn to respect differences between people and cultures • Learn spontaneity, leadership, and self-control • Boost creativity • Gain physical strength, flexibility, and stamina • Improve posture, balance, and coordination • Build freedom and autonomy
Creative Dance is a joyful way for children to explore movement through music, develop physical skills, channel energy, stimulate imagination, and promote creativity. It uses body actions to communicate an image (the wind), an idea (a journey), a feeling (strength).
Dates: February 6th – May 1st (no class March 20th during Spring Break)
Time: Wednesdays 3:30-4:30 pm
Cost for the session is $225.00 with no registration fee. Boys will receive a 50% Discount!
The last day of each session will be a parent demonstration class. This will allow parents to see what the children have learned throughout their journey of dance. This class does not participate in recital.
