Top 3 Benefits to Attending Studio Events
So you see around the studio that we have events coming up and you think to yourself “is there really much point of going?” And I am here to tell you YES! Absolutely! There are more benefits than you might think and some you may not even realise!
Now I know there are a couple of benefits that entice you to send your child along such as cheap babysitting, not having to deal with the kids for a day or night and well – school holiday activities taken care of ?
But here are 3 of my top benefits that you may not have known about:
1. Actively keeps their brain working even during the holidays: so often we see kids just wanting to be on their iPad all day or sitting doing nothing which can affect them physically as they are not getting enough exercise into their routine but also mentally as it can affect their sleep, making them more irritable the next day. By sending them to a workshop, whether it be dance classes, art, making food, spending time with friends – they are having to actually concentrate, be creative and think about their actions. Great benefit if you ask me!
2. It opens up their social skills: Generally at these workshops, they will be surrounded by kids they may not know yet or have seen at the studio, but have never spoken to in their life. By coming along, they get to experience other people, build new friendships and continue to build their confidence in effective communication. They also have to actively work those personality traits of respect, patience, responsibility and trying their best.
3. Builds a strong community and family feel: by coming along to studio events like our movie nights, it is a great chance to feel a part of something more than just ‘dance classes’. They get to feel part of a family and will build stronger connections with those around them including their teachers. It gives them a chance to burn off excess energy if it is at a workshop, or relax and wind down for a bit at our movie nights. Either way it is a fantastic chance for them to feel a part of something, feel valued & included and strengthen their team work skills.
What do you think of these benefits? If you have another one, you’d like to add, please do let us know! We can’t wait to welcome you to our next studio event!
