Do you have a child in your program who loves to loves to dance and move?

For many cultures, dancing and moving is a fun way to connect with others, express themselves, relieve stress and stay healthy. In our CNC programs, dancing and moving activities can provide opportunities for children to explore their bodies, rhythm and music, socialize, experiment, explore and learn through play – all while developing important physical, social-emotional, cognitive and language skills!
