Age range: 18 months to 3 years
Melody Movement classes at SLDS introduce children from 18 months to music and natural movement. Toddlers attend classes with their parent / carer and go on adventures with ‘Melody Bear’ and the teacher. Each lesson, ‘Melody’ follows a new theme allowing the children to discover different aspects of natural movement.
Parents / carers participate fully in Melody Movement classes, encouraging their child to develop new physical skills, respond to the music / teacher and become more aware of others and the surrounding space.
Children should bring with them a teddy bear / doll with which to dance. This should not be their very favourite toy or comforter as there will be moments in the class when the toy will need to be left alone!
Please note:
- Only one parent/carer per child will be allowed into the studio otherwise the sheer number of adults in the room could be overwhelming for the children
- Children/babies who are not enrolled in the class will not be allowed into the studio
- Parents/carers are fully responsible for encouraging their child to join in the class and disciplining their child when necessary
Through the experience of attending Melody Movement classes your child will be well prepared for his/her next stage of learning dance at SLDS which is Nursery 1 dance which children attend without their parent / carer. Please note that the teacher assesses the children in the class over the first half of each term and your first notification of your child moving up to Nursery 1 dance will be on your invoice. In addition to assessing progress, we move up all children to Nursery 1 dance at the start of the term in which they will turn 3 years. If you do not think your child will be ready to move into a class in which the will not be with their parent / carer the following term, then you should inform the office before the half term break.
