•  Wiggletoes

Wiggletoes is a new creative movement program designed for children 18 - 30 months old. This 30-minute class is a shared parent/child experience that promotes mobility, muscle coordination, physical and spatial recognition and cognitive development through imaginative play. Props and music are included for visual and tactile stimulation. Wiggletoes encourages young ones to enjoy and engage in songs, rhymes and dance as they explore their new found motor development skills.

 

•  Mom & Me

For young dancers ages 2-3, 'Mom & Me' is designed to be shared with a parent, grandparent or other caregiver. Many children are not quite ready to separate at this age, so we've developed our program to address their developmental needs and create a fun learning and bonding experience.

Each session starts with activities such as bending, stretching and swaying and progresses to locomotor movements including marching, galloping and jumping. We also focus on learning to follow directions and dancing as part of a group. Individual expression is encouraged as the children choose costumes and props to interpret favorite stories and fairy tales through dance.
