DanceBugs Freestyle classes are a great way for children to learn and progress through dance, developing their own sense of style and confidence and put through an IDTA examination from age 1+!

For pre-school children

Our Mini movers classes are a fun introduction to dance for young children. Classes are based around developing creative movement giving children the opportunity to express themselves through fun themed class plans including Fairies, Springing Animals and Elements.
