We adore our Legacy Littles!
Our youngest dancers, Ages 2 to 7 years old
Little girls and boys as young as two years old experience the joy of dance for the very first time with us. They come into class wide-eyed and full of energy, eager to bounce to the beat and sway to their favorite songs. Their sparkling tutus, tiny tap shoes, and proud smiles never fail to make our hearts melt.
But dance class is about so much more than those adorable Instagram-worthy moments. When children are introduced to the magic of dance during their early developmental years, they build a foundation that lasts a lifetime. While perfecting a plié or pirouette isn’t our top priority at this age, our focus is on nurturing a love of movement, helping them build strong, healthy bodies, grow in confidence, and form friendships that can last for years to come.
Dance is a natural way for children to express themselves and develop physical, emotional, and social skills. Starting dance at a young age allows them to discover creativity, coordination, and connection — all while having fun and feeling proud of what they can do.
Come dance with us!
