Creative Dance / Tap Combo

(Ages 4 - 5)

The Tap portion of this class will introduce the basic building blocks and preparatory steps of Tap Dance. The Creative Dance portion will work to establish body awareness, muscle development, flexibility, coordination and basic locomotor skills. Explorations of dance concepts (i.e. use of space, shapes, pathways, rhythms, etc) help to develop each child’s creativity and problem solving skills. A variety of props and music will be used. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, encouraging camaraderie, cooperation and a positive self image.
