Kids are basically little balls of energy that are constantly screaming, jumping and yelling (unless their favourite show is on). So why not turn all that suppressed vigours in their tiny bodies into gorgeous movements instead? Dancing makes for a great form of expression which allows the young minds to shape their creativity through choreographed steps too. If they turn out to be gifted at dancing, you might even get to watch them shine on stage with their crew!
So if your kid isn’t part of any dance troop yet, maybe its time to change that. Allow your little ones to unleash all their pent-up energy into slick moves at these 6 dance studios in Singapore!
Note: This list is strictly not in order.
