Kids Dancing Lessons
Dance Lessons For Kids
We love to dance! We (Katrina and Sloane) have been dancing since we were 3 years old, and competitively dancing since the age of 5. We take dance lessons in ballet, tap, jazz, acro, hip hop, modern, musical theatre and lyrical, as well as dance technique. Katrina’s favourite type of dance is acro, which combines jazz/dance with gymnastic moves. Sloane likes tap best.
We have asked many of our dance friends and teachers to help us film different dance lessons and dance breakdowns. We hope you like the moves and find some you want to try out.
If you are interested in taking lessons, there are many great studios around the world. You can choose from recreational classes, where you only study one or two forms of dance – usually for 1-5 hours per week. If you really love dance and want to perform, you can look for a competitive dance studio. You will usually need to learn the core dances of ballet, jazz and tap, but can add on others as well. There are many dance competitions, both regional and national, where you can compete against other competitive studios. You can see some of our dances in the performance section.
There are many other forms of dance as well – so explore your options. There is Latin or ballroom dancing, which is usually done with a partner. There is highland/Irish dancing, which can also be competitive. There is also folk dancing, which preserves traditional dances from different cultures. Check out our cool cultural dance section to watch folk dances from around the world.
Once you learn different dance steps and combinations, have fun making up your own dances. Some dancers become choreographers and make up dances for student performances, Broadway shows, music videos, TV programs, cruise lines, etc.
If you love to dance – then dance. It doesn’t matter how good you are or if anyone is watching. Dance is a way to express yourself and get great exercise. So just have fun and get your groove on! We hope we can inspire you to try a few new moves and styles.
