What is Creative Movement?

Fun! We want to capture the art of dance and allow it to be intriguing at a young age. From an early age children begin to show movement to music. This creative movement class is just what a child at this young age needs! It is a fun class that can develop a good foundation of skills that children will need not only now but also for later in life. Our Creative Movement program is fun, and is especially designed to provide children with the knowledge of movement and dance concepts while being engaged in a positive and noncompetitive environment.

This is a dance class so through the movement of DANCE is how your children will be learning the other skills. We want you to be aware this is not just a movement class but a well constructed dance class.

Creative movement will consist of beginner ballet technique, tap and tumbling. Your child will use skills to perform song and dance, along with other patterns to help improve physical and social awareness such as  the following:

Body awareness, control, balance and coordination

Physical strength, flexibility, stamina and agility Listening skills and ability to follow directions

Problem-solving skills

Observation skills

Classroom behavior and manners

Self-esteem, self-discipline, self-expression and the willingness to try new things

Cooperation with others including taking turns, incorporated with a positive attitude
