LEAP Lab: Creative Dance for Kids (VIRTUAL)

Creative Dance for Kids introduces young children to the art of dance using patterns, movement, words, music and storytelling.

About this event

Haitian Folkloric rhythms and movements are woven into the class in a child-friendly fashion. Students will explore a social justice theme through age-appropriate literature, conversation, and movement. Past and future themes include kindness, acceptance, noticing and appreciating differences, identity, standing up against injustice, and love.

This program is geared towards ages 3-9, but all are welcome!

Presented in collaboration with Jean Appolon Expressions, this class is co-taught by Artistic Director Jean Appolon (he/him/his) and Executive Director/Dancer Meghan McGrath (she/her/hers).

This class is offered virtually. You will receive a Zoom link through Eventbrite 2 hours before class begins.
