About

Arts Inspired Dance Academy invites you and your little ones to participate in the Under the Big Tree program, a joyful series dedicated to hands-on learning and developmental growth. Designed specifically for toddlers through age six, these sessions provide a nurturing environment where children can explore yoga, movement, art, music, and tumbling. Each class is thoughtfully crafted to build confidence, foster imagination, and support diverse learning abilities through play-based activities.

Participants will enjoy a variety of engaging stations, including sensory pods, creative crafts, and process-based art projects. Whether we are hosting Bunny's Garden Adventure, celebrating Mother's Day, or exploring the world of Puddle Jumpers, every Thursday morning offers a unique experience for families to bond and learn together. Parent participation is required to help guide these interactive sessions, ensuring a meaningful experience for all.

We encourage you to add some creativity to your weekly routine by joining our inclusive community. Classes are scheduled for forty-five minutes, though you are welcome to stay for up to an hour or leave early based on your child's needs. Please visit our website to view the full schedule and register online today to secure your spot.
