Mini Movers

These classes are aimed for children 2 years and above. They are creative classes that allow the children to develop their basic motor skills. Children will be able to use props such as hoops, wands, ribbons and parachutes to encourage their creative exploration and express their ideas. Students will be taken on imaginative journeys to the seaside, the jungle and other fun adventures throughout their classes. These classes allow children to develop confidence, mobility, speech, memory and rhythm in progression towards the dance syllabus we offer.

Every class is a journey somewhere. One week the studio is the seaside, the next it is the jungle. Children explore movement in their own way rather than copying steps in a line, because at this age the skills that matter most are balance, coordination, rhythm and the confidence to have a go in front of other people.

Underneath the games there is real groundwork going on. Children learn to take turns, to follow an instruction, to wait for the music and to finish what they started, the things that make stepping up into Primary Ballet or Beginner Tap feel natural rather than daunting.

Parents often tell us the change they notice first is not the dancing. It is a child who will speak up in a group, who copes better with being dropped off, who comes home humming. For many of our families a Mini Movers class is a child's first regular activity away from home, and we take that seriously.

Our pre-school dance classes run at the studio on Brumby Wood Lane, which suits families across Scunthorpe, Brumby, Ashby and Bottesford. There is no uniform to buy before you start and no commitment on a first visit. Come and try a class, see whether your child takes to it, and decide afterwards.
