WHAT WE DO
DANCE / COMPOSITION
Children learn creative ways to move their body while exploring elements of professional dance techniques. A special focus on basic composition and individuality, leading to a small creation. Our classes promote positive self-image and are for all ages and body types. This class is hard work, but lots of fun.
MUSIC EXPLORATION
During the music hour, the children will sing, say, dance and play as they create music together. They will use their voices, bodies, props, and objects from the world around them to create and engage with the world of sound.
ART / CRAFTING
Our young artists are given a guided experience through multiple “colors” of Art. From painting to crafting, the children are encouraged to create every day and mentored through different styles and basic techniques. This program will also introduce elements of fashion and sustainable art, and we hope to cover our walls with daily "exhibitions."
DAILY OUTINGS
In the afternoon, the children go outside together with our experienced team to explore the beautiful playgrounds and museums our city has to offer. Some examples of places we go are Kannenfeldpark, Lange Erlen, the Natural History museum, or the zoo.
