Dance Me A Story 9-14 (2)

Dance Me A Story 9-14 (3)

Dance Me A Story! “Each class starts in a circle with a warm-up and gross-motor skills around the room.  The dance teacher uses dance terms throughout the class (plié, releve, passé, chasse). She also incorporates a bit of yoga in the warm up. Then each class features a story with movement and accompanying music. Class ends with Freeze dance into a cool down.” Parents stay in the room, but must keep conversations to minimum. Parents may join in if it helps their child but in general the kids participate on their own. For kids ages 2-5.  Older siblings may join.
