Children's Division
The Children's Program at San Marino Dance Academy follows a developmentally and cognitively sound curriculum beginning at the age of 3 and building to age 8. Children develop at individual rates, thus abilities and talents in early childhood are extremely varied. Our curriculum consists of a sequential program that is appropriate to children’s ages and developmental needs. Classes build student’s confidence, understanding and appreciation for their bodies, as well as love for movement and dance. Our program promotes participation, sharing, leadership, appreciation of others, awareness of personal space, and respect towards classmates and instructors.
