CLASS SCHEDULE
Monday
4:00-4:50 Intro To Dance ages 3-5
This class introduces kids to basic dance concepts that serve as a foundation for all dance styles. We will explore movement themes such as traveling, turning, jumping, and rolling to develop coordination, balance and body awareness. We explore the nuances of dancing while learning about rhythm, tempo and dynamics.
5:00-6:00  Modern Dance ages 6-8
Drawing from many styles of modern dance technique, this class introduces movement exercises that develop strength, flexibility coordination, balance and body awareness.  These concepts are applied to phrases of movement and to improvisational exercises.  We will explore how movement is used to express an idea or to paint a picture, and learn to how work together as a group.

10:00-11:00 Mommy & Me YogaDancalates ages 0-2 with one parents or care giver
A combination of yoga, dance and pilates gets you moving with your little one. This class transitions between exercises and postures for mom that include children and sequences, songs and movement patterns just for the little ones.  Playful fun and a great workout!
12:30-1:30 Creative Yoga ages 3-5 (adult yoga class in main studio $8/class for parents)
Children will be introduced to yoga postures and focused breathing through story telling, games and kid friendly language.  Independence will be encouraged from the beginning of class when kids roll out their own mat and take a seat.  Performing class in a circle, children develop a sense of their class community and learn to work with the group though cooperative games and partnering.  Creative Yoga allows kids to explore yoga in their own way while developing coordination and balance.  The hour will include book reading, a meditation or a craft project.
5:00-6:00 Creative Movement Workshop ages 6 and up
Get the creative juices flowing, this class is all about  exploration!  Each class begins with an idea, concept, music or prop that will serve as a  launching pad for making solo, duet or group movement, giving kids an opportunity to develop their own ideas about movement.  

I wish the timing was different for the children ages 3-5. I would love to take my daughter to dance clss but the timing is to early for us.
