Why dance during a pandemic?​
Dance is an extension and expression of who we are as human beings which allows us to share emotions that increase our sense of community and connection. Kids are feeling, expression is essential, dance never stops.
​
Dance is proven to improve moods, mental health, and cognitive skills.

What is this teaching my child?
Never give up. Change can be good. Dancing = learning & growing for the future. Learning to be flexible, adjust, and be positive in every situation. We are in this together
Why dance at a studio?
Dance studios can limit the number of students and create a safe environment, even when school is out- we can finish our season, safely. This becomes a good way to ensure your child is still engaging in physical activity and healthy social situations.
