Testimonials

"My daughter, Kaila, has attended WSOD since its inception in 1997. It has been a great privilege to be part of a school where all the instructors are very caring and extremely dedicated to their students. Joanne Carey’s devotion to the art of dance has made the school a huge success and all the students adore her. Her commitment to the community is commendable and is evident through fundraising, offering a work study program and just this year introducing a “Little Stars” program for disabled children. The recitals are comparable to a professional production and leaves the audience feeling very proud to witness the cultivation of the dancers’ skills year after year. WSOD is a very special place and we are so happy to be a part of it." - Diane Starita

Our Pre-School Program - Kindergarten

---

Here at Westfield School of Dance, we feel our younger students are very special people and have created an environment for them to come express and discover themselves in a loving, nurturing and fun environment. Our pre-school dance classes are designed to introduce children to movement, music and rhythm, as well as body discipline awareness and the appropriate developmental skills for the growing child. While we follow a progressive syllabus, emphasis is placed on fun, creativity, imagination and the development of positive self-esteem.

In addition to dancing, a child will learn the concepts of taking turns, following another dancer or leading the way, waiting patiently, working together and sharing. While the use of props, musical instruments, songs & imagination are the basis to our classes that introduce the fundamentals of ballet, tap, jazz and creative movement, our newest dancers will not only learn their technique, rhythm and motor skills, but the sheer love of expressing themselves through dance.

More and more educators are recognizing the benefits in training young children in the concept of movement. Sequencing, patterning and spatial relationships all lay a strong foundation for the later development of reading, mathematics and other educational skills. At Westfield School of Dance we offer you this and more.
