Dance Connection is opening a dance studio at Jungleland!

Our timetable:

Below are listed all available dances. Maybe you can find one that is just right for you.

Twinkle Tots Freestyle___________________________________________
The Twinkle Tots class is for all budding dancers under 5 years. This class offers the opportunity to try a little bit of everything! children will learn the basis of , Modern, Disco and even a little bit of line dancing. All this along to their favourite songs from Disney to the latest chart music. The emphasis is for children to have loads of fun, gain movement skills and increase energy (as if they don’t have enough already!!).

Tinsel Tappers__________________________________________________
For all those who can’t keep their feet still and their toes are always tapping, the Tap class is for you! Tap is a classic form of dance which has been used for years in shows and musicals. It can be simple or detailed and can leave scope for a variety of interpretation. The Tap class will involve learning traditional steps in order to construct routines which can be danced to songs from both past and present. However, I also hope to include up to date music to bring a more modern feel to tap dancing.
Also included in the Tap class is Modern dancing. Tap and Modern dancing are collectively known as Stage. Modern Dance was originally derived from Ballet, created by people looking for a freer way to convey their emotions. Today Modern dance is flowing and allows pupils to express themselves through the dance steps. Once again, I hope to combine the traditional with the new in creating fun dances to music I’m sure everyone will enjoy.

Disco Divas (over 5’s)____________________________________________
In this class, anything goes! Freestyle is exactly that - FREE STYLE. Although there are some set moves, dances can be made up of almost any move you can think of. This is an extremely energetic and fun form of dancing. Included in the hour you will learn lively routines to your favourite songs. If you ever wanted to be in High School musical or CD:UK, then this class is definitely for you! Combining elements of Street Dance, Disco and individual expression, this class is guaranteed to keep you fit and keep you smiling.

Princess Poms_________________________________________________
This may sound a bit different, but Dance Cheer Pom is basically cheerleading without any stunting. This means you will learn all the dance based elements of cheerleading. Please note, no lifts or throws will be taught (we don’t want any injuries!). This type of dancing includes a lot of arm movements and more than often team work. So, pom-poms in hand, you’ll be cheering and dancing like a real cheerleader in no time!

Twinkle Toes Ballet______________________________________________
The Twinkle Toes Ballet class is for all budding dancers under 5 years. This class offers the opportunity to learn basic ballet moves then put them all together to form simple fun routines! Children will dance along to their favourite songs from Disney to the latest chart music. The emphasis is for children to have loads of fun, gain movement skills and improve posture.

Rising Stars Stage School________________________________________
As a Rising Star your child will learn all the tips and techniques to grow in confidence and to succeed. Whether they are future Stars who just need a little help releasing their inner Singing voice or Acting prowess, or if they would just like to have fun and gain confidence, they can do it with us.
Drama allows children to engage and think about stories and plays. They will play games and create characters, which will help create a strong understanding of spoken and unspoken communication, that all of us use and see on a daily basis. They will get to know how to express themselves freely and easily as they have the tools to interact and the perception to identify other people’s mannerisms.
Singing allows children to explore the variety of language and sounds. They will learn the skills to project their voice and speak clearly and fluently. Developing a confident voice, which is multi-expressional, will make it easier for them to make friends, ask questions at school and succeed well in life.
Imagination keeps life exciting and interesting – We will encourage your child’s Imagination!

Note to parents – why not stay while your child is in Dance Class? A huge range of refreshments are available in the café. This way, children have the security of knowing where you are, but are not inhibited by having adults in the room while they are dancing.
