A new kid's active experience at MAC
What is The Dance Society?
The Dance Society is the unique dance experience for the Yarra Ranges and Knox!
At The Dance Society, we provide our students with an expectation-free experience. Haven't danced before, or learning at your own rate? No worries! Our classes are based on age, and so we are able to take away the pressure of needing to know new skills to progress. Like any other class, we teach genre-specific dance class fundamentals, including warming up properly and learning dance steps that go into a routine each term.
We use these fundamentals, along with other dance-based activities and games to instead focus on using dance as a way to enjoy being active, and the ways that dance can develop important life skills, like motor, coordination and manipulationo skills, social skills, creativity and imagination, and leadership.
My Moves - Monbulk's new Preschool Dance Program
Students have the opportunity to learn about the fundamentals of dance, including dance steps, routines and warm ups, and of music, including understanding beat and lyrics. However, this is more than just a dance class. The My Moves program will give students the opportunity to express and hone their imagination and individuality; engage and from social skills and bonds with other students; provide a fun and enjoyable environment to work on fitness and be active; and develop real-world skills by introducing a range of manipulation and sense of body motor skills activities that will positively impact students outside the dance studio.
The My Moves program is available for enrolments from Term 3! Be sure to book your trial class or purchase your membership, with $0 joining fee and access to our aquatic facilities, to come dancing in our Tuesday 3:15 class!
Our Junior Hip Hop dance program is specifically designed for children aged 5 - 14 years incorporating urban dance techniques such as popping, locking, breaking, freestyle and party grooves.
