What does Music and Singing in Dance class look like?

Music and singing are foundational to Ready Set Dance programs, helping children learn to connect movement with sound. We introduce children to musical instruments, rhythm and interactive songs to assist language development, self-esteem and emotional regulation. Incorporating songs into early childhood movement activities supports cognitive development while making learning fun and engaging. 

Why Music and Singing for Kids is so Important

Through singing in lessons and musical activities, children:
  • Develop listening skills and understand musical rhythm
  • Learn new words and strengthen language skills
  • Enhance cognitive development through structured musical play
  • Build confidence, self-esteem and emotional regulation
  • Explore musical instruments and their voice
  • Develop social skills while singing and moving with peers
Songs, interactive exercises and playful activities help children explore creativity and joy in a supportive environment. Kids love these activities because they are fun and engaging, and parents love the opportunity for their children to develop skills, confidence and a lifelong love of music and singing. Musical activities also speed up the development of children's brains in processing sound, language development, and speech perception, as well as being lots of fun.
