The Building Blocks Program at BLDC was created with our youngest dancers in mind. It has been used and fine-tuned by our faculty of experienced ADULT instructors for the past twenty years. Our class structure promotes social skills, discipline, independence and most importantly, self-esteem.
Our age appropriate syllabus will introduce your child to the many benefits dancing has to offer. Children will build stronger, more coordinated bodies by expanding on basic behaviors like skipping and jumping while being introduced to a broad range of dance forms. Over the course of the dance season, all Building Blocks students are taught ballet, jazz, tap, tumbling basics and creative movement. In order to maximize the progress made in our classes, we use a rotating class structure. As the name suggests, our Building Blocks Program is proven to prepare our students for further training in all disciplines. |

Building Blocks Dance Kit
Each dancer registering for a Building Blocks class will need a Building Blocks Dance Kit. The props included will help keep young dancers engaged in class while developing their imaginations through an added element of fun! Individual props will keep dancers from sharing items in class. Kits will include items such as scarfs, wands, rhythm sticks, and bean bags.
The $10 cost of the kit will be charged with registration and kits will be distributed in class.
