Dance and Tumble
Classes are designed to introduce children to the world of dance, movement and tumbling. Children will be introduced to elementary ballet vocabulary and will be encouraged to express themselves creatively through movement. Classes will promote socialization and listening skills and will help children develop an awareness of how their bodies can move.

Jazz
