Early Childhood Programs  -  Ages 18mo to 5yrs

For our youngest students’ first steps into the dance world, we offer specialized, developmentally appropriate programs: Mom & Me, Fantasy Ballet, Tiny Tappers and Jr. Hip Hoppers. During each fun filled 16 week session, dance terminology, improvisation and character work are introduced through magical fairy tales and classic children’s stories. Each small group experiences a series of creative  activities that are designed to encourage imagination, gross and fine motor skills, rhythm, musicality and spacial awareness. Props, instruments and costumes are often used to enhance the fundamental instruction. They have their own special performance at the conclusion of each session in a more relaxed environment, designed to be a stress free, and a happy experience for the young performer
