Children ages 4 to 14 experience the joy of physical movement and learn the importance of being fit for life as they dance their way through age appropriate, specially choreographed routines by Judi Sheppard Missett. A typical class lasts about 90 minutes and consists of a warm-up, dance routines, and a variety of movement experiences.  Children will also learn a performance routine, and receive a JazzerKid worksheet (interesting facts on health and fitness).
