Toddler Dance Curriculum
Our curriculum is based on Rudolf Laban’s BESS system:
- Body: What part of the body is moving? Leading the dance with different body parts.
- Effort: How is the body moving? We explore moving fast and slow, with great effort or ease, through curves and bends or in straight lines.
- Shape: What shapes can we make with our body, with others, and as a group?
- Space: Where are we moving? We explore personal space, taking up a lot or a little space around us, and different ways to use the space as a group.
Each session will have a key theme: body parts, fast and slow, stop and start, shapes, big and small, close and far, bringing it all together in an end of term season special.
