You can imagine how many times I have had people ask, "Aren't they too young to be dancing?" Well the size of our school and number of students currently attending and in the past too, demonstrates no!
The truth is, as long as you find age appropriate dance classes, absolutely not.
The ability to start dancing develops in children before they can even speak their first words!! They move rhythmically and start to respond to sounds, they reach up, they bend down, they turn...what we do is turn those natural movements into dance. Through the joy of imagery and lots of enjoyable props that the children engage with, it allows us to extend them even further.
The power of dance is HUGE!
The benefits ballet and dance have on early childhood development is definitely worth understanding....more about that soon!
