Dance, Movement, and Tumbling for the Younger Child
The following classes support your child’s natural curiosity for movement exploration while fostering creativity and self-esteem. Young children develop new skills in a nurturing environment with a primary instructor and one or more teaching assistants for each class.
  

Creative Dance, age 3-4, and 4-5, 45 minutes A playful introduction to dance through music and motion.   Creative Dance begins with circle time, warm-up, and stretching.  Children explore the movement concepts of tempo, space, levels, and energy.   All young children will delight in gliding, sliding, galloping, leaping, and skipping.  Creative Dance for ages 4-5 will also include a segment of introductory tap and counting skills.

Kindergym , age 3-4, & age 5-6, 1 hour
A great start for the active child!  Our young tumblers are introduced to basic tumbling skills in a safe and fun setting.  Children will develop strength and coordination through log rolls, egg rolls, forward & backward rolls, and basic loco-motor skills.  Children will develop balancing skills and core strength.  Focus is also given to teaching children how to take turns and foster self-confidence.  Each child will receive his/her own personal chart for you to record the progress and skills learned throughout the semester through our “Fun & Fit” recreational gymnastics curriculum. 

Dance ‘N Roll, ages 3-5, 1 hour
This class combines the movement and dance component from Creative Dance and includes the basic tumbling skills from Kindergym.
