About the Class
Rise Up 11:00 – 11:45 , 6-7 years
Rise up builds on the foundations of Leaps & Strides (4-5 years). Your child will get the chance to experience more challenging movement ideas, working as a group and with partners and building strength and flexibility by learning more complex movement phrases. Robyn and Olly push your child’s imagination even further through story-telling and improvisation. This is a great, creative dance class for your child to build their skills and confidence.
