What does my child learn in a tiny toes ballet class?
Tiny toes ballet is the only pre-school ballet and dance programme in the UK that is fully integrated with the EYFS curriculum. Our award-winning children's ballet classes include fun, learning, storytime and so much dancing!
There are so many benefits to our classes; building confidence, developing coordination, encouraging creativity to name a few. Movement is the gateway for all learning during the early years of life because sensory, motor and social development precede language and logic skills. Children learn by playing and doing and dance, in particular, integrates kinaesthetic learning with understanding.
Our programme is a proven model, designed to foster crucial skills through movement and social interaction during the most important years of your child's development.
Tiny toes ballet is not just about learning dance steps; it's about your child's development. The tiny toes ballet learning journey book captures this journey beautifully, making it a cherished keepsake for you as parents, and a testament to your child's growth in kids ballet. Whether your little one is just starting or progressing through the stages, our programme ensures a well-rounded, joyous experience in children's ballet, which is all tracked in their accompanying book.
