What is Tiny Dancer?

We're starting up our Tiny Dancer class for babies & toddlers again, and we've had a lot of moms asking, "What is Tiny Dancer?"

Our Tiny Dancer class is a fun music & movement experience for both baby & parent/caregiver. In the class, we dance around to children's songs, nursery rhymes, as well as adult songs that parents will recognize & love. Some of the dances are just plain fun, but most of our songs have some learning incorporated in. For example, blowing & popping bubbles enhances your baby's hand-eye coordination. And playing freeze dance teaches your baby about controlling their body and being able to start and stop their movements (which frankly for babies & toddlers can be a very hard task!) We also practice jumping, hopping, twirling, and other fun movements that may seem easy to us, but can take a while for babies to achieve mastery over. The Tiny Dancer class is great for babies who love to move, those little ones who bop to the beat whenever music is playing.

Our Tiny Dancer class is for strong walkers ages 14-30 months old. Different age babies will get different skills out of the class - the littler babies will be having fun while starting to learn the routine and a few of the songs, while the older babies can join in with all of the movements. And moms, you'll get a bit of a workout as well dancing around with your baby!

Check out our online class calendar to see what days & times we currently have Tiny Dancer. The sessions are 8 weeks long, and we'll prorate you in when you join mid-session (as long as there's room in the class!)
