Creative Movers (ages 3-5) – Abingdon

/in /by

Creative Movers is the first level of the Rambert Grades syllabus – a pioneering contemporary dance syllabus born from the partnership between two of the world’s leading contemporary dance organisations: Rambert and Rambert School.

Celebrating movement at the earliest stage, Rambert Grades Creative Dance classes encourage each child to explore movement, developing physical skills, harnessing musicality and encouraging confidence.

Each class takes children on an imaginary journey with endless themes. An energetic warm up is followed by physical skills development, as children learn structured movement material. Creative intuition is encouraged with a closing creative exploration to dive deep into their imagination. Swimming with whales, flying rockets to the moon or adventuring through the desert- every class is different.

As children move through three grades, Creative Movers, Pre-Primary and Primary, we celebrate six qualities: Communication, Teamwork, Generosity, Effort, Listening and Enthusiasm.
