Movimiento creativo y demostración: introducción a la danza y mucha diversión *Niños de 3 a 7 años bienvenidos

During this on-going Creative Movement class, we will learn to dance in a playful manner. Each week will include lots of silly songs that kids can relate to. Not only will they be having fun and playing, but they will also be fine-tuning their large motor skills without even realizing it. We also incorporate some smaller motor skills with props! 

Week 1: We will begin with a silly song to warm-up our bodies then dance to songs that introduce our body parts. 
Week 2: We will begin with a silly song to warm-up our bodies then dance to songs that work on balance in different positions. 
Week 3: We will begin with a silly song to warm-up our bodies then play a game of "mirror image" where each child gets to be copied by the entire class!
Week 4: We will begin with a silly song to warm-up our bodies then, using a scarf prop, we will dance to different songs and talk about different movements, shapes, animals, and other things we can do with it!
Week 5: We will begin with a silly song to warm-up our bodies then we will learn how to use our bodies as instruments and how we can make different noises using our hands, feet, legs, arms. *NO instruments or props please*
