It Takes 2 Pea is a great class for our 2-3 yr olds. This introduction to dance and gymnastics uses creative, imaginative role-playing and fun basics. This class may involve pretending to be animals, playing instruments to learn rhythm, learning balancing, skipping and running and techniques using ribbons, or picking up “diamonds” (shhh…they’re actually just feathers) from the ground to develop their hand-eye coordination.
This class is suitable for both boys and girls who are having so much fun that they won’t even realize that they are learning the fundamentals of dance and gymnastics along the way. This class includes 20 minutes of dance and 20 minutes of gymnastics with an adult (at least 16+). We recommend that your athlete has an understanding of basic instruction and can speak in sentences for this class.
