A fun, creative way for parents and their children to connect and learn dance together.
In this weekly class, you will discover the joys of expressing yourself through dance with your child. Designed to be both exciting and educational, these classes help in the development of your child's gross motor skills, coordination, balance, and love for music and dance.
Inside a natural-light-filled studio with stunning views of the waterfront, a world-class Interlochen dance instructor will guide you as you strengthen your bond with your child. Each week, you will experience a warm, supportive environment that encourages self-expression and social interaction. Special focus will be placed on rhythm and moving your bodies to the beat of different types of music.
Music will be provided by Harbor Hoedown, with Larry Dyer calling.
All dances taught (circles, contras, squares and more). No need to bring a partner. Perfect for families. Potluck at 6:30. Bring table service and dish to pass. $10, $5/student, 12&under free.
