Pre-dance classes combine two dance disciplines into one class. This gives children the opportunity to discover multiple styles of dance whilst keeping them highly engaged. Class style choices include a combination of two of the following: ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop and acro. Pre-dance classes will continue working on concepts laid out in our creative movement program. In addition, students will start to learn basic dance terminology, strengthening, flexibility, and musical awareness. Our pre-dance program is designed to be the perfect introduction to dance and a great foundation for a child’s dance education.
