Dance With Me builds coordination and rhythm while introducing children to movement, music, and creative play. With the support of a parent, grandparent or caregiver, young dancers can experience peer-to-peer interaction and exciting, imaginary adventures. The goal in this class is to encourage participation and build confidence so the child feels comfortable coming to class on their own in the future.
