Mini Movers & Their Grown-up Groovers

These family dance workshops offer a fun and creative opportunity for children and their grownups to dance and move together! This dance workshop will explore togetherness through moving, using contact, props and drawing and offers a great family bonding experience. Suitable for children 12 months – 4 years old and their grown-ups! This is a class for children and their grown-ups to dance together! Children must therefore be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the class. Due to the popularity of these classes, tickets for additional accompanying adults are charged at £6, please book. The class is led by professional dance teacher Rachele Rapisardi.
