Laurelhurst Studio Dance Program for Children

The Laurelhurst Dance program affords a variety of choices to introduce dance to children starting from 1yr. & up.For the youngest ages, we have parent & child classes where adult involvement is essential to the class. The discovery of music, rhythm & movement in a shared experience enhances the bond between parent & child.Toddlers can work on their balance & coordination with Baby Boogie, 1-3yrs., Tumble, Twirl, Turn & Twist, 1½-3yrs., Tumble Bugs, 2-5yrs., Head over Heels Gymnastics, 3-5yrs., Gymnastics-Preschool Star Power, 4-6yrs., Tumbling KinderGym, 4-6yrs. or explore music & fantasy with Toddle Time, 1½-3yrs., Dancing Prince & Princesses, 2-3yrs., Dance-Movement & Me, 2-5yrs., or Fairy Tale Theatre, 4-6yrs.Children ages 3-5yrs. benefit from an introduction to the dance curriculum with classes like Terrific Twirling Threes & Fours or Ballet, Jazz & Tap Fundamentals, 3-5yrs. which explores several forms of movement such as tap, ballet, jazz or hip hop. These classes ready each child for other areas of learning such as academics & sports.A child may repeat our classes as new concepts & materials will continue to be introduced.

Within the Americans with Disability Act (ADA) of 1990, Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) provides accommodations to individuals with disabilities/special needs, so that they may receive an equal opportunity to fully participate in programs offered citywide.

How it WorksFirst choose the activity you’d like to do & the PP&R site at which you’d like to do it. Next, register for the class. When registering, let the person know that you will need accommodations in order to participate in the activity. Once registered, contact Inclusion Services at (503) 823-4328. If this is your first accommodation through Inclusion Services, you will need to do a phone intake with a staff member at that number. At the end of the phone intake it will be determined whether an assistant will be needed on the first day of the activity to provide on-site support at the age-appropriate class. Future assistance will be provided based on need. The inclusion staff will work with the instructor on how to support you and your individual needs.

A general program may be adapted using auxiliary aids & services, but the basic structure of the program remains the same. Accommodations are made as needed & can be flexible & creative, ensuring the participant engages as independently as possible.
