Many children joyfully "sing" before they talk and "dance" before they walk; therefore, music & dance is a natural experience in the discovery & learning process of young children.

Creative Music & Dance is an element-based, developmental program designed to be fun and nurturing to the individual child.  Classes are age specific and are designed to motivate as well as educate.

The Music Program focuses on development of rhythm skills, appreciation of music in a variety of forms & disciplines, identification of musical instruments & how they are played, and understanding of the different qualities & varieties of sound.

The Creative Dance Program focuses on the development of a vocabulary in dance and movement.  Classes focus on the basic elements of body awareness and movement, spacial awareness, both as an individual, as well as being part of a group, different qualities of the force of movement, and the varieties of rhythm of movement.

Class work also develops locomotor skills, social skills and cognitive skills.  The aim of the Creative Music & Dance is to provide a positive early experience in the arts as well as a life long appreciation of the performing arts.
