Creative Movement + Play
with Maryn Whitmore
This creative class for little ones holds space for children to move their bodies while learning kinesthetic awareness, balance, and rhythm. Children explore independence, locomotion, shape-making, and storytelling through movement and play.
$50 per month
Making Dances
with Lisa Yaconelli
This improvisation and choreography class helps movers become confident in what they know, and encourages them to start making something out of it.
Using modern choreography techniques, we will compose group and solo dances with different types of music, personal writings, drawings, movement games, and challenges.
This class is as much about children getting to know themselves and finding their voice, as it is about dance. If your child wants to be a professional dancer this class will make them a smarter and a more articulate dancer. If your child just enjoys dancing, this will only encourage their love of movement by keeping them curious and challenged -pushing them to follow their own questions, and answering them in their own way.
Making Dances prepares your child for Wild Things Physical Theater and is a good compliment to Dance Forms
$60 per month
This rigorous dance class explores classical and contemporary dance technique and its use within the body, improvisational structures, and phrase work. Through alignment patterning, muscle development, flexibility training, body awareness, and artistic tuning, dancers learn to use movement as a means of self-expression and overall well-being.

Dance FORMS-
Skills, Styles, STEPS + You
with Lisa Yaconelli and Laura Hoffman
This skill building and inspiring dance class delves into modern, contemporary and classical dance technique with an emphasis on individuality. Students learn, embody and express dance vocabulary and technique while enhancing kinesthetic awareness, alignment, strength, and flexibility. Learning movement patterns, rhythms, use of weight, space, and time students discover personal movement affinities, coordination and integration.
This invigorating class includes skills practice, somatic experience, phrase work, locomotion, improvisation and choreography. While dancing we're also developing emotional and body intelligence.
Freedom within structure. Structure within freedom.
This class is for all levels and a compliment to Making Dances, and Wild Things Physical Theater.
