The Daisy Dance Dynamics program is focused on beginner classes for the youth of Clarendon Hills. Classes in the styles of ballet, tumbling, and hip-hop will introduce movement and fun for ages ranging from 2-10. The classes will focus on developing foundational skills and terms, as well as fostering a creative space for the youth to explore self-expression and individuality. All are encouraged to pirouette and jeté into this exciting and new opportunity!
