Life Skills Through Dance
Our Shooting Stars Class provides an exciting chance for children to develop important life skills and have fun through the art of dance. By joining our class, your child will:
Develop Discipline and Focus: Dance routines teach children concentration, hard work, and dedication.
Building Resilience: Persevering through and mastering steps builds a confidence in children that encourages a positive attitude to be taken towards the next challenge that comes their way.
Encourage Creativity: Children explore styles like Cha-cha, Jive, Waltz and Samba - learning the basics of Ballroom and Latin Dancing through playful activities. This variety allows each child to gain a more varied foundation, allowing them to show their creativity however they like.
Dance Exams and Competitions
In addition to life skills, our Children's Classes take regular (yet completely optional) Medal Examinations and an annual Dance Competitions in order to celebrate their progress. These events are a fantastic way for children to use their hard work to gain confidence doing something they wouldn't usually do. Whether your child is just starting their dancing journey or if they are looking to take their dancing to the next level, we will help guide and support them every step of the way.
Join our Shooting Stars Class and see your child have the time of their life learning to dance!
