Young Dance is offering a new class for caregivers with very young children.

Babywearing Dance provides a unique opportunity for parents and caregivers to bond with their babies through the joy of dance. The class incorporates various movements, including swaying, stepping, bouncing, and more. Participants are encouraged to bring their carrier of choice, but holding their baby is also an option. In addition to dance, the class will also include time for socialization with other caregivers.

Participants can register for the session, purchase a 5-class card, or drop in as needed. Caregivers should wear comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement. Bring a carrier of your choice or hold your baby. Most participants take class barefoot, and street shoes are not allowed in the studios. Any shoes worn during class should be clean and only worn indoors.

Fridays, 11:30am–12:15pm
Ages 0–1 with caregiver

MotionArt’s mission is to share the art of dance and the joy of movement with people of all ages and abilities. We strive to enrich lives by fostering creativity, body awareness, and self-expression in a fun, non-competitive, welcoming environment. We offer ongoing dance classes in-studio, on Zoom, and outside (weather permitting).

Paying the regular rate helps keep our organization afloat; however, no one will be turned away for inability to pay. There is also an option to pay what you can.

Please go to motionartmn.org to sign up for classes, or contact Pam Gleason for information.
