DANCE CLASSES FOR OUR YOUNGEST PERFORMERS IN 2024
All our dance programmes for our young ‘superstars’ encourage the love of dance and music in young children.
With small class sizes and high teacher to student ratio students are given individual attention as they learn to move with control, co-ordination and confidence as well as develop a sensitivity to music.
Classes are suitable for girls and boys.
Our focus is on providing a nurturing and encouraging environment where our youngest dancers can thrive.
Class ages listed below are used as a guide to help parents - although if you have any questions regarding enrolment and best classes to choose please contact me at suzanne@csod.dance
