MAD Academy
Music and Dance and a whole lot of fun!
MAD Academy run weekly classes for pre-school children which are bursting with energy and fun! We combine lively music and dance with carefully structured learning.
We believe in a free-spirited approach to learning. Children can be unpredictable, so if they focus elsewhere for a moment, that's fine as the next activity is bound to excite them! We promote a relaxed and fun atmosphere- they won't even realise how much they are learning!
Classes are designed for children from 3 months to 5 years old, split into appropriate age groups.
Children are accompanied by a parent or carer so the experience is a shared time together. We introduce children to the magic of self expression through movement and dance and explore different rhythms, musical instruments, dances and musical styles. Our games of co-ordination, listening, matching and imagination are guaranteed to surprise!" www.madacademy.com
