Dance Fusion for Preschoolers is levelled at introducing young children to the joy of dance without the stress and extra cost of examinations and uniforms.
* Our goal is to instill a love for dance and joy of movement. We teach this through Passion and Performance.
* We teach musicality - to count music, to notice changes in tempo, feel the emotion in music and to listen and dance to lyrics. The emphasis is for the student to find and capture their own inner emotions to dance, therefore we emphasise free movement and loss of self awareness.
* We teach techniques in which to learn dance moves, steps and choreography.
* Jazz, Hip-Hop and Classical techniques are studied in class. All genres are vital in learning to be a versatile dancer

Had a lovely day creating our Mindful Movement for Term 2 🙂
Every day we step into the studio, we must take a moment to take account of our bodies. Every day is different. Weather, hormones, a bad day at school, a fight with a friend, can all affect our movements.
When we give ourselves a moment to acknowledge those changes, and, most importantly, accept them, our time in class can be more productive and more positive.
A mindful dance practice also allows us to find the newness in material that might no longer interest us or challenge us. Every dance form has those movements and techniques that we must do over and over again, whether it be a part of our warm-ups or performance. But as performers, we cannot afford to get bored, because our audiences will feel that lack of engagement. They’ll know that we’ve checked out and are dancing purely from muscle memory.
