Mommy and Me Dance Classes: A Fun Way to Bond and Move!

What to Expect in a Mommy and Me Dance Class

A Mommy and Me dance class is a fantastic way for little ones to explore movement while strengthening their bond with a parent or caregiver. Also known as Grown-Up and Me, Me and My Shadow, or Dance with Me, these classes introduce basic dance concepts through music, rhythm, and creative play in a nurturing environment.

What is a Mommy and Me Dance Class?

These fun, interactive classes allow young children (typically up to age 3) to dance alongside a parent, grandparent, or caregiver. Sessions run 30 to 60 minutes and provide a great opportunity for bonding, socializing, and movement exploration.

What to Expect in Class

Classes often begin with circle time featuring songs, clapping, and storytelling. Children will engage in playful activities using scarves, shaker toys, and musical instruments, helping develop motor skills, rhythm, and creative expression. With a caregiver’s assistance, little ones will practice turn-taking, listening, and coordination through activities like hopping, crawling, and balance exercises.

What to Expect at Your Studio

Mommy and Me classes at your studio may be scheduled in shorter weekly sessions and most often during the daytime hours. Be sure to register as soon as you can for the each session, as there will likely be class size limits. These classes may fill up fast!

Recital performances may not be included with a Mommy and Me class, but policies vary by studio.

What to Wear to Class

Check with your studio about a dress code. Usually little dancers can wear any basic dance attire, while adults can wear comfortable clothing that allows for ease of movement. Studios may require bare feet, dance shoes, or sneakers, so confirm before purchasing.
