About Kids Dance Courses
The Kids Dance programme at Jitterbugs Swingapore and the Kids Circus Arts programme at Circus Swingapore are for kids from age 4 to 12 years. All our Kids courses correspond with the Singapore school terms as published by the Ministry of Education. Each of our dance terms are 9 weeks long, with fees prepaid on a term basis. The number of children in a class will be limited to ensure quality of class.
Kids' dance courses are grouped according to age and/or ability. As a guide, children will remain in each level for about a year. All promotions to the next level (if any) will be made at the teachers' discretion.
In the event that the instructor feels your child should be in a different level (eg her abilities are beyond her current class mates), the instructor will consult with you to suggest a more appropriate class. This may mean he / she moves to a different time slot.
Kids are offered the opportunity to perform at the annual kids show. In addition to this, selected students can compete at the CSTD competitions or take the CSTD examinations. Opportunities for the selected children to gain experience on external stages will be provided by our dance-centric talent agency, Talent Avenue.
Unless otherwise specified, the duration of each class is 45 minutes. Some classes are currently waitlisted. Please e-mail or call us at 6887 0383 for enquiries.
