Courtney’s class Descriptions:
Creative Movement Classes: for 3-4 year olds (Wednesdays 4pm) 7 Week Session 1/15-2/26 $140 & 5-7 year olds (thursdays 4pm) 7 week Session 1/16-2/27 $140
The Creative Movement Classes will be an opportunity for children to experience structure, solo movement as well as collaborative movement. Classes are broken down by age so kids feel comfortable in their their peer group. Each class will start out with a warm up wiggle song, a stretching song, hops, skips, marches, etc. around the space. Moving together as a group helps kids understand a shared goal and spatial awareness. The class will also include improvisation, play with props and taking turns. Courtney’s goal is to keep it creative while providing a safe space for your child to explore movement in a class setting.
