Focus on movement while never losing sight of fun! With dance classes for various ages and skill levels, we provide an encouraging environment that promotes coordination and creativity. You'll become stronger and more confident as you express yourself through dance.
DANCE & TUMBLING
Explore creativity through movement.
At the Y, you'll learn more than just choreography. Our goal is to create a caring atmosphere that inspires imagination and encourages a love of dance. By teaching dance principles and proper technique, we nurture self-expression, body awareness, and musicality, as well as an appreciation for the arts.
Dancing also helps develop coordination between the mind and body. Through dance, you'll experience a multitude of benefits as your skills and confidence grow:
- Improved strength, posture, coordination, flexibility, and balance
- Greater awareness of rhythms and music
- Better concentration skills and memory
- Enhanced fine and gross motor skills
