Early Years Program
Our Early Years Program provides dance classes for children aged 1 to 4.5 years. We believe in encouraging and nurturing the love for dance from a young age. Whether your little one wants to be a Prima ballerina or just loves to move and groove to music, we have something for everyone. All of our classes for children under the age of five are play-based and use your child’s imagination to develop the skills they will need for a future of dance. Please see below for class descriptions and age requirements.
PARENT & TOT | 12months-2.5yrs
Our Parent and Tot class runs in six week sessions and is for toddlers aged 12 Months to 2 years old with the participation of their parent/guardian. We use a play-based curriculum to start introducing the structure of a dance class to your toddler while still having lots of fun. We will work on building the basic skills of dance such as demi-pointe, plies, and jumps all while using mimes, songs, and props to keep your tot entertained and engaged all class long.

*NEW* KINDER TOGETHER | 2-3yrs
Kinder Together is a brand new pilot program we are introducing this year to bridge the gap between our Parent & Tot and Kinder classes. Held in 10-week sessions, this will be a parent participation dance class for children ages 2 to 3 years who are ready for more structure than Parent & Tot but may not yet feel confident participating independently in class. Dancers will explore music, movement, creativity, and foundational dance skills through imaginative play-based ballet and jazz activities, while also building confidence in the studio. Parents and caregivers will participate alongside their child, and are encouraged to gradually step back as dancers become more comfortable engaging with the class independently. Kinder Together is a perfect stepping stone for our littlest dancers as they develop confidence, independence, and a love of dance.
DAY & TIME TBA
Late September - Early December
Early January - Mid March
