It is a fabulous way to exercise and bond with your child. Parents are required to stay and participate with their child during the class, you really would not want to miss out anyway! You are welcome to bring multiple children, as long as they are under your care and children are welcome to bring cuddly toys to dance with too! The classes last for 30 minutes and include warms ups and the teaching
of basic and simplified steps and moves of various different Ceilidh dances and we end with tea, juice biscuits and some social time. We will teach and demonstrate all dances, helping anyone in need along the way. Older children will be able to pick up on steps more quickly while the younger children will enjoy the music, dancing and atmosphere. It is a great, fun workout for the whole family! Whether you clap out the beat on the side, dance every dance alongside your child, or hold your baby as we go round in circles, there is something for you at this class. Music and movement is something most babies, toddlers and young children enjoy and benefit from immensely. It is a way for them to connect with the world around them, express feelings, exert energy and learn. Bringing your child to a dance class at a young age exposes them to the joys of music and movement and dancing with your child helps to strengthen your own relationship while having a great time! It teaches them rhythm, coordination and helps with their counting too. A Scottish Ceilidh is one of the most exciting and fun social dance experiences out there and we think you will find that your children most whole-hardheartedly agree!
