Family dance course – On the Trail of Animals

An immersive four-session dance course where dance becomes storytelling, movement becomes play, and imaginations are let loose. Each session explores a new animal theme, taking participants on an exciting journey through time from the age of dinosaurs to the Ice Age, then to the present day and finally far into the future. Along the way, participants discover fascinating facts about the animals of each era. Every adventure ends with a lovely shared moment of calm and relaxation, engaging the senses in different ways. FOR WHOM? For children of all ages and adults of all fitness levels. The group is selected in accordance with the youngest child. Siblings can take part in the same session together with one adult.
