In our fun and relaxed Toddler classes, parents/guardians can watch the classes while their child dances in the space just in front of them. Whether children are confident dancing on their own or could do with a bit of support, we welcome all children to come along and try our creative Ballet classes together! Infant siblings are welcome to watch too. We are maintaining social distancing and working to keeping everybody as covid-safe as possible. 

On a child’s first lesson to the term’s theme, they will be given all the props that they need for the term and ask please that they are brought to every class. Children can wear whatever they would like to and the only requirement is that it is clean on that day and there is something on the feet, such as ballet shoes, house slippers, gripped socks etc. Hair must be tied back from the face with a hair band/ hair clips etc away from the mouth.

In September and October, our children’s theme is the story of Sleeping Beauty. Students of all levels learn about the different gifts fairies give Sleeping Beauty and that inner beauty (traits like generosity and kindness) are even more important than outer beauty. Younger dancers will get to travel like woodland creatures, dance at a birthday party and grow like the vines that grew around the castle.

In November and December, our theme will be the story of the Nutcracker with creative dances based on toys coming to life, dancing like the snowflakes on the way to journey to Sweetieland. There will also be the option to come to watch a relaxed live stream of the Nutcracker at the Wiltshire Music Centre with more details to follow. 

Trial sessions are £4 and can be booked by emailing bopaboutdance@gmail.com. 12-week fees are £58 and include all props to keep and use of costumes/accessories throughout the term.
