Guided by our dance artist, these structured sessions will explore and encourage movement between adults and their little one using scarves, balls, hoops, music, and books. Join in the fun with them and share the magic of exploring movement together.
To encourage and support healthy movement in Tots, these classes will:
Explore and build connections between children and their adults
Support early language development by building recognition of colours, numbers, and a variety of themes
Develop balance, coordination and confidence in children
Saturday 17 January 2026 – Saturday 28 March 2026
