About the class

Welcome to: Class with Ms. Nicole!

No frills movement class* where your child will gain movement skills and reinforce developmental movement patterns that not only assist in their physical development, but cognitive and emotional development.

Located in Astoria, NY, my mission is to nurture your little one's natural joy for movement and creativity while providing a safe, supportive environment for learning and growth. Join me in discovering the joy of dance for your little mover!

*Classes are a combination of elements of Laban Movement Analysis, The Brain Dance (Anne Green-Gilbert), creative movement and basic dance skills. They do not cater to a certain gender - all are welcome!

Neurodiverse children are also welcome to participate. I have worked with all types of learners. Everyone can experience the joy of dance!
