Kinder Program
Twinkle Toes (Age 2)
Children love the freedom of space and movement. This class is a parent and tot class filled with fun music, rhythm, instruments, balls, books, tunnels, play mats and more!
This is a PARENT ASSISTED CLASS.
SHOW MORE
Our first introduction to dance should be magical. Our twinkle toe classes are a parent assisted class. Their parent will come into the room with them and help guide them along with our instruction. Mid way through the year we slowly transition the parents out of the class. Our twinkle toes program allows the dancer to feel safe with their teacher and this allows them to come back when they are three (3) years-old with confidence because when they were two (2) we built that trust.
All of our twinkle toe and Kinder Kids programs will be subject to an attire fee at the beginning of the year. It will include the leotard and leggings for the class. The price will be determined year-to-year based on the costs from our suppliers. The fee in previous years was $59 combined.
