How To Choose The Best Canadian School Of Dance Ottawa For Your Child

By Stephanie Phillips


If you have a child who loves moving to music you may be thinking about enrolling them in dance. It can be a fantastic way for them to get exercise as well as learn discipline and other valuable skills. It is important to pick the right Canadian school of dance Ottawa, however. Taking your time to decide and considering the following factors will help you narrow down your choices and pick the program that meets you child's needs as closely as possible.

It is very important to make sure that the teachers at any dance school have proper training and know how to teach your child safely and constructively. This is especially true if they are taking acrodance or working on more advanced skills. It is also important that the teachers know how to work on warm up exercises and other fundamental skills so that the kids are ready to move with less chance of hurting themselves.

If you are the parent of a very young child who would like to learn how to dance you might want to think about a creative movement class or one that may teach some steps but also involves play or other fun activities. This will help keep a child entertained and interested at a time when they may not be ready for a more structured style of class.

A slightly older child may do better with more formalized instruction. If they have never taken dance classes before an introductory or beginner's series of classes may be a good idea. Look for classes that feature children that are close to your own child's age. This may make it more fun for them and may make it easier for them to form friendships in dance class.

Some young dancers want to be able to take a variety of classes that may teach them a variety of different dance styles. If you think that your child may be interested in branching out from one style of instruction it can be worthwhile for you to look for a school that offers a variety of instructional styles. This may make it easier for you to coordinate class schedules.

Competing is something you may not think about when your child is young but it isn't a bad idea to do so. You may want to find out if the school has a competitive team for your child to try out for. Some schools will allow your child to compete if they take certain classes while others may require your son or daughter to try out in order to join the team.

If you are trying to find a school of dance for your child you may find it easier if you start your search in the spring or summer. You can look online and see lists of the classes that they offer. If there are some that interest you or your child you can then contact the school itself and speak with the teachers or someone who runs the school. Then, when it is time for your child to start classes (which usually start in the fall) you will know which one you want your child to go to.

While you may be tempted to choose the first school that looks good, you may want to take your time and look at reviews that talk about the teachers and the quality of the instruction. That way you know your child will be learning in a safe environment that will let their inner artist shine through.
