Group 3-4 years old
Preschoolers love to dance! We make it super fun for them to get involved and develop a love of movement. Your kids will learn to express their creativity, develop social skills, and build confidence in their own bodies. Nothing is more exciting for a child than movement, music, and fun!

Your kindergarten-aged kids will love these fun, high-energy dance classes! We begin to teach the basic principles of movement used in ballroom dancing. We will expand your child’s love of dance and continue to boost their confidence, self-esteem, and social skills. We also prepare the kids for some fun local competitions.

Benefits of Dance Classes
Confidence
Children who dance have higher self-esteem and develop confidence in their bodies. Confidence also grows through achievement and competition
Creativity
Children who dance at an early age will find a constructive outlet for their creativity and a positive way to express themselves. Channeling this creativity at a young age will help them later in life.
Active Life-style
In a tech-driven world, it’s increasingly important for kids to be physically active. Dance builds strength, flexibility, endurance, coordination,
and balance.
Social Interaction
Dance lessons are a great place for kids to make new friends. They improve their communication and social skills with each other and learn to work together as a team.

What Parents Say
My children have attended classes at the DC DanceSport Academy for years now. The classes are intense and instructors are demanding, but, because of that, my children’s growth as dancers is absolutely tremendous. More importantly, they really enjoy dancing and look forward to advancing their skills by learning new and challenging routines.
