PARENTS

PARENT PARTICIPATION

Parent participation is a requirement for two and three-year-olds. When children reach four years old they will be more independent but may still need you to watch and cheer them on. Please allow your child to set the pace and try new skills that are within their comfort zone.

DRESS COMFORTABLY
Please bring your child dressed ready to move. Leotard or T-shirts and shorts or tights are perfect with bare feet. Long hair should be tied up with soft scrunchies to avoid injury.
 
CHILDREN LEARN AT THEIR OWN PACE
 Some students will be at different levels in the same class.  Coaches can tailor classes to suit the individual students within a class.  Beginners often  learn from watching other more experienced students in class.

STAYING TO WATCH?
Recreational Classes are generally drop off classes. You are,most welcome to watch but please do so quietly. Hearing many voices when listening to instructions makes it difficult to absorb all that is being said by the coach. Phone calls are to be taken outside during class but feel free to take pictures or videos of your own child.

Annual Registration Fee: There is a $50 Annual Registration fee for each child enrolled.
