Experience the joy of dance and discover growth through movement!
Learning Connections is proud to introduce Dance & Discover.
It supplements the Early Years Program by creating a safe, playful space for children to explore movement creatively and express themselves, while encouraging primitive reflex integration and self-regulation.
Each session integrates developmental movement, breath work, music, colourful props and activities that foster physical, emotional, cognitive and social development.
The Benefits:
- Confidence & Connection: Fosters emotional and social growth through creative play and group activities.
- Strength & Flexibility: Empowers children with dance, yoga and breathwork techniques to promote body awareness.
- Resilience & Regulation: Promotes the development of self-regulation skills for a stronger sense of control and well-being.
Elements of Dance & Discover
Each Dance & Discover session has a consistent structure, providing a predictable environment that creates a safe space while encouraging primitive reflex integration and self-regulation and healthy attachment to the group. The elements include:
Singing & Movement
- Strengthening motor skills while enhancing body and spatial awareness through playful movement sequences.
Creative Dance
- Creating dances together fosters imagination, self-expression, and community spirit.
Breath Work & Yoga
- Developing flexibility, calmness, and emotional control with breathing techniques and yoga poses.
Reflection Time
