Classes for Every Age and Skill Level

Our Curriculum

At Dance FUNdamentals, we believe that music and movement are a joyous experience all children should have access to. Because movement is an innate desire in children, we have created a unique curriculum that harnesses their natural energy through play. We put FUN first, and the learning naturally follows, laying a strong foundation for future dance skills in any genre, as well as greater confidence and creativity in whatever interests they pursue as they grow.

Ballet Class

4-6 Year Old Class

Our 4-6 year old class is designed to introduce young dancers to the basics of movement and dance in a fun, engaging way. Led by our experienced instructors, your child will learn coordination, rhythm, and balance while exploring their creativity.

6-8 Year Old Class

In our 6-8 year old class, your child will build upon the skills learned in the 4-6 year old class and begin to develop a deeper understanding of different dance styles. Our instructors will guide them through a variety of movements and techniques, helping them to grow as dancers and individuals.

Beginning Ballet Ages 8+

Our beginning ballet for ages 8+ is a natural progression from our early childhood classes. We build on the foundational skills of rhythm, balance, coordination, self-expression, and body control by doing exercises at the barre, in the centre and across the floor. While we still introduce all the same movement vocabulary of a standard beginning ballet class, we maintain our commitment to learning through play by using games, songs, and storytelling.
