Goal of this exercise is improving
-
self-awareness
-
body expression
Learning to dance is not only fun for children, it also trains body awareness and allows them to find a natural and personal body expression.
Instructions
-
Each dance form is an expression in itself.
-
Participants dance alone, in pairs, in threes, in a circle.
-
With eyes closed, children can focus even better on the rhythm.
Variants
Children can also add creative elements.
-
Little ones playfully experiment with rags, balls, ropes and feathers.
-
Older, more experienced children can work on short step sequences and smaller dance choreographies.
Tips
Diverse sensory experiences in children's movement are, in turn, important for healthy cognitive and emotional development.
