Dance provision for Early Years settings

Taking part in dance activity has so many benefits for young children. Our classes, help children to keep fit and develop core physical skills. They will grow in confidence and self-esteem too.

Content is planned specifically to meet the age and ability of your children and builds upon learning every week. We can also help you to upskill your staff with our CPD programme.

From jumping like a bunny, to galloping like a horse, we have the energy and enthusiasm to inspire your children to dance. Along with inspiring music and colourful props spark imagination and keep them engaged.

Our experienced leaders will visit your centre on a weekly basis to deliver a block of dance sessions with your children. Content is relevant to the children’s age and ability and aligned to the Early Learning and Development goals in the EYFS framework.
