In our Mini Movers Ages 3 class, dancers explore creative movement with the use of props, educational songs and dances, across the floor (skipping, galloping, marching, leaps, directional movement and travel patterns, turns, floorwork, balance, flexibility, kicks) with ballet and jazz movements as a base! These classes are all about giving your little dancer the freedom to express themselves while learning the basic foundations of jazz/ballet/lyrical!

We recognise there are different stages of a child’s growth in the preschool years and every child progresses differently. Therefore our pre school programme provides a stimulating and exciting programme that develops a range of skills and nurtures their expression and confidence.
These classes can lead your child happily into more advanced dance classes or simply help with your child’s general progression in those important early years.

In our Mini Movers Ages 3 class, dancers explore creative movement with the use of props, educational songs and dances, across the floor (skipping, galloping, marching, leaps, directional movement and travel patterns, turns, floorwork, balance, flexibility, kicks) with ballet and jazz movements as a base! These classes are all about giving your little dancer the freedom to express themselves while learning the basic foundations of jazz/ballet/lyrical!
This class will NOT perform a dance in the recital and gives dancers the chance to have a pressure free dance class to come and dance simply just to dance! (unless all dancers in the class really want to perform then can be discussed with the teacher)
We recognise there are different stages of a child’s growth in the preschool years and every child progresses differently. Therefore our pre school programme provides a stimulating and exciting programme that develops a range of skills and nurtures their expression and confidence.
These classes can lead your child happily into more advanced dance classes or simply help with your child’s general progression in those important early years.
