Dance - Tumble - Learn
AcroDance Preschool is an introductory course to our independent dance and acrobatics classes. Students will have so much fun singing, dancing, and tumbling, they may be unaware of the strength, balance, and coordination they will be learning.

Today’s preschoolers come to dance class with unique challenges, having been exposed to the digital world since birth. With ever-increasing screen time, physical literacy is less likely to be naturally developed through free play, and more often will need to be taught in a classroom.

AcroDance Preschool, like all of the classes offered at Garden State Dance Arts, aims to nurture the whole child. While mastering a summersault is an impressive goal for a preschool acro dancer, we also take pride in our ability to inspire physical literacy, as well as social and emotional understanding, and how it will make a lasting impression on a young life.

AcroDance Preschool (Wednesday)
8 spots left
Dance - Tumble - Learn
AcroDance Preschool is an introductory course to our independent dance and acrobatics classes. Students will have so much fun singing, dancing, and tumbling, they may be unaware of the strength, balance, and coordination they will be learning.

Todays preschoolers come to dance class with unique challenges, having been exposed to the digital world since birth. With ever-increasing screen time, physical literacy is less likely to be naturally developed through free play, and more often will need to be taught in a classroom.

AcroDance Preschool, like all of the classes offered at Garden State Dance Arts, aims to nurture the whole child. While mastering a summersault is an impressive goal for a preschool acro dancer, we also take pride in our ability to inspire physical literacy, as well as social and emotional understanding, and how it will make a lasting impression on a young life.

Acrobatic Arts is a progressional system for teaching AcroDance. Through thoughtful progressions, teachers will introduce new skills as the dancer has trained his/her body for the skill and is ready for it. This greatly reduces the potential for injury, creates more technically correct work, and helps dancers to progress more quickly (in the long run).
