Little Leapers
Ages 1.5 to 3 years old
(Toddler to Pre-school)
Little Leapers is a children’s dance program allowing your toddler or preschooler (ages 18 months to 3 years old) to explore, create, and play in a safe and healthy environment. You will create lasting memories together as they grow, learn, and shine through each step of their dance lessons.
At Ballet East, we believe in the power of play. Because a happy child will simply learn better, our dance studio focuses on playful learning to ensure your child gets the most out of their dance classes. Your child will be captivated in their dance class as they discover creatures under the sea, make sandcastles in summer, play in piles of autumn leaves, throw snowballs in winter, and watch flowers bloom in spring.
Our children’s dance school emphasizes every aspect of their growth. Their growing brains will benefit from learning about rhythm and music. At the same time, their bodies are strengthened through exercise, and their social-emotional well-being will benefit from interacting with other kids their age.
