It’s no secret that people everywhere, of all different walks of life and cultures, love to dance, and a lot of people love to take dance classes to celebrate these cultures. In this class, we will learn a variety of dances from different countries as an introduction to many styles. Dancers may request specific countries they are interested in. This will be an engaging, active, experience where children will learn more about themselves and others around them. The confidence gained through achievements in dance helps to build social skills, increase self-esteem, and the ability to communicate well in a group. These skills once built up through partaking in dance can lead to a variety of career routes. Pop-Up Class produces happy, positive, dance event memories. We are qualified professionals leading events in a friendly, theatrical, exciting & fun-filled atmosphere. Each class will include a social introduction, Hello in different languages, a full-body warm-up, music from around the world, choreographed movements to follow along, and a concluding goodbye reverence.
