🎵 The 5-minute movement challenge!
Here's a little challenge for Chichester families to try this week.
Put on a piece of music your child loves.
Then ask them to create:
1 movement for the beginning�1 movement for the middle�1 movement for the end
That's it!
There are no wrong movements and no need to be “good at dancing”.
The challenge is simply to listen to the music, use their imagination and see what their bodies come up with.
You might be surprised by the result!
If you try it, we'd love to know what song your children chose. 🎶
And if they invent a particularly brilliant move, it might just need a name...!
We would love to see your creations.
From all of us at RSSD, have a wonderful week.❤️

A little tip for parents of busy children...
Sometimes children don't need another activity.
They need five minutes where nobody is asking them to achieve anything.
Put some music on.
Let them lie on the floor.
Dance around the kitchen.
Make up silly movements.
Stretch.
Jump.
Sing.
Be ridiculous together.
It doesn't have to be a “dance activity” and it certainly doesn't have to be structured.
Children spend so much of their time being told what to do, where to be and what they need to achieve.
There is something lovely about giving them a little space simply to move, play and be themselves.
And quite often, those are the moments they remember. ❤️
From all of us at RSSD, have a wonderful week.❤️

5 reasons to start your child at Ruth Stein School of Dance from age 3! 🩰✨
(After our tots class which starts at 18months!)

1. Start building confidence from the very beginning 🌟
Our classes give little ones the chance to express themselves, try new things and grow in confidence in a fun, supportive environment.

2. Develop those all-important early skills 💕
Dance from a young age helps develop balance, coordination, musicality, listening skills and body awareness all through play and movement.

3. Make friends and become part of the RSSD family 🤍
Starting at 3 means children can grow alongside their classmates, building friendships and becoming part of a welcoming dance community in Chichester.
We also have our tots ballet starting at just 18 months old!

4. Learn to follow, focus & have fun 🎶
Following instructions, remembering simple movements and taking turns are all skills that naturally develop through our classes without children even realising they’re learning!

5. Give them a love of dance that can grow with them 🩰
At Ruth Stein, children can start their dance journey from our tots class at 18 months old and then continue developing their skills, confidence and passion as they grow.

✨ It’s the perfect age to start discovering the joy of dance!

What makes a great childhood?
We've been thinking about this over the last few weeks.
Is it good grades?
Learning to win?
Being the best?
Being busy?
Or perhaps it's something much simpler.
Having people who believe in you.
Finding something you love.
Having friends who make you laugh.
Being encouraged to try something new.
Having somewhere you feel you belong.
Being allowed to make mistakes.
Having adults who notice when you've done something brave.
And having opportunities to discover who you are and what makes you happy.
That's one of the reasons I love working with children.
Whether it's dance, sport, music, drama, art or something completely different, I think every child deserves the chance to find their “thing”.
And as a local dance school, we're very lucky to play a small part in that for some of the wonderful children in our Chichester community. ❤️
Here's to a new term of learning, laughing, trying, sometimes getting it wrong — and growing.
From all of us at RSSD, have a wonderful week.❤️
