The goal in our preschool classes is to provide an enriched environment for all our dancers. Offering a multi-sensory experience ensures we are reaching multiple different learning styles.
" A multi sensory environment develops axons that are myelinated; therefore, they communicate more smoothly with one another. Neurons that fire together, wire together, creating stronger connections in the brain. The enriched environment involving the visual, auditory, kinaesthetic and tactile senses through problem solving, relevant projects, complex activities and critical thinking"
