A movement class taught in Spanish to introduce the students to moving your body, positive interaction with other children, and exploring space, time and limits through dance.  This class is perfect for a child that is learning Spanish as a second language or fluent. .The instructor will be speaking Spanish through the whole dance class. Immersion is a key feature to helping non-native children learn a new language and to support those who are advanced. This is not a language learning class, but supports understanding Spanish and Latino culture.  A creative movement class. Dynamic Food Pyramid Theme: Protein
