Young dancers will move freely and joyously while learning the foundations of movement and dance making. This class will introduce Brain-Compatible Dance Education concepts such as Energy, Rhythm, and Pathway through the use of music, props, stories and play. Dancers will gain important problem- solving, collaborative and critical thinking skills as they build their own self-confidence and creative voice.
