LAURELHURST DANCE STUDIO

Laurelhurst Studio Dance Program for Children The Laurelhurst Dance program affords a variety of choices to introduce dance to children starting from 1yr. & up.

For the youngest ages, we have parent & child classes where adult involvement is essential to the class. The discovery of music, rhythm & movement in a shared experience enhances the bond between parent & child.

Toddlers can work on their balance & coordination with Baby Boogie, 1-3yrs., Tumble, Twirl, Turn & Twist, 1½-3yrs., Tumble Bugs, 2-5yrs., Head over Heels Gymnastics or Toddler Gym, 3-5yrs. They may explore music & fantasy with Toddler Sing Along, 1½-3yrs., Toddle Time, 1½-3yrs., Dance, Dance, Dance or DanceMovement & Me, 2-5yrs.

Children ages 3-5yrs. benefit from an introduction to the dance curriculum with classes like Terrific Twirling Threes & Fours or Ballet, Jazz & Tap Fundamentals, 3-5yrs. which explores several forms of movement such as tap, ballet, jazz or hip hop. These classes ready each child for other areas of learning such as academics & sports.

A child may repeat our classes as new concepts & materials will continue to be introduced. Also, Pre-Ballet-Where Dreams Begin for ages 3-5yrs. or 4-5yrs., Tap Dance-Tiny Tappers, 4-6yrs. or DanceTiny Hip Hoppers, 3-5yrs. or 4-6yrs., or Dance-Joy in Motion, 4-6yrs. may be added at this point.

We also offer classes in some of these dance forms for children ages 7yrs & up. who want to continue training as well as older beginning dancers. For those wanting to explore more than one type of activity, we have combination classes such as Ballet, Jazz & Tap Fundamentals for Older Kids, 6-10yrs. Each class & level explores new material & continues with exercises to establish the strengths & skills evident in posture, alignment, coordination & initiative.

At age 8 years, children are eligible to join the studio’s Youth Ballet Training Program with Jojo Hills & Mara Cogswell. See that section for more detailed information.

INCLUSION SERVICES FOR PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS Within the Americans with Disability Act (ADA) of 1990, Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) provides accommodations to individuals with disabilities/special needs, so that they may receive an equal opportunity to fully participate in programs offered citywide.

How it Works First choose the activity you’d like to do & the PP&R site at which you’d like to do it. Next, register for the class.

When registering, let the person know that you will need accommodations in order to participate in the activity. Once registered, contact Inclusion Services at (503) 823-4328. If this is your first accommodation through Inclusion Services, you will need to do a phone intake with a staff member at that number. At the end of the phone intake it will be determined whether an assistant will be needed on the first day of the activity to provide on-site support at the ageappropriate class. Future assistance will be provided based on need. The inclusion staff will work with the instructor on how to support you and your individual needs.

A general program may be adapted using auxiliary aids & services, but the basic structure of the program remains the same. Accommodations are made as needed & can be flexible & creative, ensuring the participant engages as independently as possible.

If you have questions about Inclusion Services, please call 503-823-4328 V/TTY. A minimum of 10 business days (Monday-Friday) advance notice is required. The Inclusion Services staff will do their best to accommodate each participant.
