Bebe Ole! (6 to 18 months) - 30 minute class
(formerly, Barefoot Boogie)
... encouraging your little one to jump and jive ...
Can you teach a baby to cha-cha-cha?? Maybe not a cha-cha-cha that you and I would
recognize but, as a parent, you won't be surprised by how naturally and instinctively very
young children move to music. As a teacher, I'm always thrilled when I see a
spontaneous smile spread over a toddler's face when the music starts.
This class is all about encouraging that innate rhythm and the natural love of music and
movement that your child demonstrates whenever they hear music.
We will introduce your child to music that they might not otherwise get to hear - cha-cha,
salsa, mambo, quickstep, argentine tango, jive!
Every class will open with circle time where the children will become familiar with a set of
songs, stories and games. There will be some old favorites but always with a latin twist!
We will have lots of brightly colored, fun instruments for the children to make their own
music.
Then you will scoop your favorite dance partner into your arms and we will learn some
latin dances - salsa, rumba, tango, samba and swing. The children love it and the
parents or nannies have a blast too! Please bring a baby carrier for this part of the class.
We will introduce the Spanish language by incorporating songs, stories and games with
colors, numbers, animals and greetings in Spanish.
We will close with story time with the Spanish versions of classic children's books such as
Oso Pardo, Oso Pardo (Brown Bear, Brown Bear) and Buenas Noches Luna (Goodnight
Moon).
Parent Testimonial from a Barefoot Boogie Family
What one of our Barefoot Boogie moms said...
"Barefoot Boogie was fantastic for my 15-month old daughter. She is already a
gregarious, outgoing child. However, when she started the class she also started
dancing, moving to all rhythms, even ones that to you and I don't sound very rhythmic!
She loves to get up when watching her educational music tapes and move to the beat.
Sometimes she will just hear a radio blaring from a car on the street and in the
stroller start moving her shoulders. She loves all music and has a deep appreciation for
it. I am positive it was due to her Boogie class, where she was introduced to all kinds
of fun, interesting music. She even mimics what she learns at home, because she
seems to genuinely love what she is learning and participates in. Thanks Sally for a
great learning and enjoyable experience for my little girl!"
