ECMP & JUMP Classes

Our children’s dance classes include Early Childhood Movement (ECMP) and Junior Movement (JUMP) programs are specifically designed for boys and girls between the ages of three and five years old. These programs are developed to give your child physical and emotional confidence that can be carried with them as they grow. The curriculum combines your child’s natural love of movement, music and imaginative play with their physical, social and cognitive make-up. These classes introduce important kinesthetic patterns, a basic understanding of human anatomy, and promote social and emotional skills, language, early mathematics, creativity, and self-expression.
