Mini PreDance

Our Mini Pre-Dance class is an introductory dance session designed for young children, typically ages 2.5-5, to explore the basics of movement and rhythm in a fun, engaging, and supportive environment. The class focuses on building coordination, balance, and body awareness through simple, age-appropriate activities like stretching, basic footwork, and creative play.

The class is the perfect way to introduce little ones to the joy of dance in a relaxed and playful atmosphere.
