Specialised Kindy Dance Program Hornsby & Wahroonga
Did you know, we offer specialised Kindy Dance Programs for children, that are designed to nourish their creative and social needs, without compromising their energy levels? As we know, starting big school can be a huge and often tiring step for children and in many cases parents are advised to cease all after school activities for their first year of kindergarten as they will be ‘just too tired.’
Now this is often true for many kids as they adjust to the demands of waking up earlier to get to school, using their minds in new and exciting ways and learning a whole range of material over the first year. Of course they are going to feel a little bit more tired than normal.
But when there are sooo many changes happening in a child’s life that may be overwhelming and sometimes scary; it is important to have some familiarity and continuity with activities that that they know and love. Activities that they get excited about, that they feel calm and happy doing and activities that continue their social experiences. Big school can sometimes be an anxiety provoking topic for young kids and so by having a creative tool that they can come back to and use to express emotions and also calm them down from stress; is essential. Now, I know you’re probably thinking “but dance is so physical, how are they going to have the energy to come to class?” Which is where our Kindy Dance Programs come in.
I have specially devised this program, so that it is run in a calm and relaxed way that is nurturing of the demands of school and mindful of their energy levels. Though they are completing a dance class, the structure is run differently so as to not tire the kids out too much, but rather focuses on the imaginative and creative aspects of dance. These 30 minute classes, which are run earlier in the week and at earlier time slots, are the perfect balance between exercise, foundational dance steps, creative stimulation and relaxation techniques to equip them with the tools needed to lower anxiety and stress levels.
Why not try out one of our Hornsby dance classes and see for yourself, what we are all about!
