Program Description

Body

Dancer Katalina Salcedo will guide children through the classic, magical story of "Carnival of the Animals" with its accompanying classical music soundtrack from Camille Saint-Saens. In this story, children will clap, twist, march in place and move their arms up and down as they learn how to use movement & emotion to match the sounds of the music around them. Just like the animals, children will prance like a lion, hip-hop like a kangaroo, sway like fish and be graceful like a swan. The story culminates with each child dancing like the animal of their choice to make their own "Carnival of the Animals"!

Recommended for children ages 4 to 8. There are limited spaces. Please register to attend.
