We’re dancing into October at WHPS Oxnard preschool dance class! We had a special request for a Unicorn Academy dance called: “Follow Your Heart”. I had the children dance with scarves to this beautiful song. The dance introduced some ballet steps such as
● Passe (toe comes up to the knee while balancing on one leg)
● Releve (lifting the heels while balancing on the toes)
● Port de bras (moving the arms)
To celebrate the beginning of October we danced to one of my favorites, soon to become your child’s favorite: “Spooky, Scary Skeletons”. This song is a little more silly than scary. We run, jump and move our bodies like expressive, dancing skeletons! There will be more Halloween dances in the weeks to come. Seasonal dances help children organize and connect to their environment while learning how to dance.
