Dance with Me & Pre-Primary
Dance With Me classes start back on March 16th
Dance With Me (ages 2.5-4) classes are 30-minute creative lessons for young children and a parent/caretaker to explore dance, movement, and music in a fun, positive, and nurturing environment.
Scroll down to REGISTER NOW for Spring Session (March 16th – June 15th for Dance With Me Spring, 2021). Space is limited.
Once your dancer is comfortable dancing on their own, we encourage them to transition to our Pre-Primary classes (ages 3.5-5). Pre-Primary classes are 45-minutes long, designed for children who are ready to dance independently in a more structured learning environment. Dancers 4 years-old and above who have already taken a full year of Dance With Me must register for a Pre-Primary class.
Pre-Primary classes are offered in 10- and 12-week sessions. Fall and Winter sessions are 10 weeks each; the Spring session is 12 weeks. Please note: the Monday Pre-Primary class will run 3/15 to 6/21.
