In Wanniassa, parents love that our programs are both engaging and nurturing. Children come away from every class with a smile, new skills, and growing friendships. Many of our families tell us their shy children quickly blossom into confident, happy participants, while energetic kids find a structured outlet for their creativity.
Our Ready Set Dance Preschool Program forms the foundation of our preschool offering in Wanniassa. This award-winning program introduces young children to ballet, jazz, tap, and creative movement, taught in a way that makes every class feel like play. We also include age-appropriate tumbling and acrobatic elements for toddlers who love to jump, roll, and explore movement. Classes are tailored for complete beginners, so no prior dance experience is needed.

Preschool dance in Wanniassa is where that journey begins—it’s where confidence, joy, and lifelong friendships are formed.”
