Kindy Dance Time is about enjoying movement — that’s why we love it. There is no pressure to excel or even to participate, if your toddler is having an off day. It is a lovely half hour each week that makes me smile because the children are having such a good time. Whether my daughter comes out of this experience yearning to be a ballerina or dancer is not the point — it’s about music and FUN. The dances change about every 7 – 8 weeks, after the children have grown in confidence and skill. Each set of dances is based on a theme like the circus, beach or enchanted forest — and the music is chosen to suit the age group and theme alike. We have been taking our daughter to Kindy Dance Time at the Collins Street Centre for a year now and we have re-enrolled for 2014 too. The reason we love it is because of the teacher, known affectionately as «Miss Nel». Her enthusiasm, skill and talent at connecting with children is wonderful to watch and our daughter loves the experience of dancing for someone who is so passionate about children enjoying themselves. Kindy Dance Time is a great activity for boys or girls, and there are a range of classes, times and locations available for 2 – 5 year-olds. definitely give it a try in your area. We hope that your teacher is a blessing for your kids like Miss Nel is to ours.
