Dance Party with Let’s Dance!Designed for ages 2–6 +
Get ready to move, groove, and giggle at our monthly Dance Party—a joyful event for young children and their caregivers! Led by the always-energetic Amy Shadis, each 45-minute session is packed with fun, easy-to-follow dances, plus plenty of time for freestyle movement with family and friends.
We’ll dance along to favorite preschool songs and classic kid-friendly tunes—think “Freeze Dance,” “The Goldfish,” and more—alongside themed movement activities that get everyone in the groove.
Every month brings a new theme—from “Back to School” to “Disco Fever” to “Totally 90’s”—so there’s always something fresh and exciting to look forward to. Whether you’re twirling in tutus or breaking it down in your best retro gear, this party is all about joy, connection, and self-expression.
Don’t forget to strike a pose! Each party includes a themed photo backdrop, perfect for snapping a fun keepsake with your little dancer.
No dance experience needed—just bring your energy, comfy clothes, and your best moves!
Let’s Dance... and let’s party!
