Leap ‘N Learn for parents
Dance classes provide children a chance to develop vital physical, cognitive, social and emotional skills. No other activity allows young children to work on fine and gross motor skills, develop language skills, and build conceptual awareness, all while learning to take turns, share, pack away, and learn how to express their feelings and emotions.
Leap 'N Learn develops conceptual thinking into each and every class, which means your child isn’t going to thrive just in their dance studio - they'll also be totally set for success in school and in life.
One of the biggest benefits of early childhood dance classes is developing children's social skills.
What does social development in leap ‘n learn classes look like?
Interacting with new adults and peers
Turn-taking, sharing and team work
Learning how to succeed and how to fail
Negotiating disagreements and problem-solving
Exposure to different social cues
All of these things contribute to children’s ability to build and maintain relationships - and they're all embedded into each and every Leap 'N Learn lesson, workshop and camp.
putting children’s development first
Children learn at different rates and there are big differences between the developmental landmarks of a 3-yr-old, 4-yr-old and 5-yr-old. A good preschool dance program understands early childhood development and has training in educational theories in order to provide quality, developmentally appropriate learning experiences.
Leap 'N Learn provides opportunities for your child to develop and succeed physically, cognitively, socially and emotionally. Instead of placing the same expectations on all students, our curriculum allows each child’s unique strengths to shine through.
It's no wonder we're the obvious choice for discerning parents who are looking for something more than a dance class. We're all about giving little ones the best start in life while letting them be little!
