Holiday Classes & Workshops
Tot Bop provide dance classes and dance workshops for children aged 1-9 in the school holidays. Younger ages group classes are parent/carer participatory and workshops for the older children are over a few hours and are drop off only, giving you parents & carers a much needed break, while your child has a great time dancing, performing and building their confidence.

When & What?
9.30-10.05am Tiny Tots (age 1-2.5) Class
Join us for our ‘Tiny Tots’ class and experience a fun, funky and engaging introduction to music, movement and rhythm for your child. Classes are parent/carer participatory so have fun joining in with your little one, building memories and experiencing it together. There is lots of focus throughout on rhythm, moving to the beat and copying ‘actions’ and movement patterns. So don’t worry if your little one isn’t quite walking yet, there’ll be plenty for them to get stuck into. Enjoy this fun, colourful and imaginative class, with lots of props, puppets, instruments, scarves and bubbles! All our exercises are designed to work on developing early co-ordination, gross motor skills, imagination and ability to copy; all wrapped up in fun and imagination!
10.20-11.05am Baby Boppers (age 2.5 – rising 5) Class
Join us for our ‘Baby Boppers’ class and experience a fun, funky and imaginative introduction to dance for your child, where learning and fun are delivered in equal measures. Classes are parent/carer participatory so have fun joining in with your little one, building memories and experiencing it together. There is lots of focus throughout on rhythm and moving to the beat. Exercises are often linked with shapes, colours or numbers, to enhance cognitive awareness and learning landmarks outlined in the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stages) guidelines. Children learn to follow instruction and develop gross motor skills, such as walking and running at different speeds, galloping, jumping etc. Children immerse themselves in their imaginations in the storytime section and groove out in the Tot Bop Boogie, where even the grown-ups get up and dance! At the end of the class the children get to chill out in the sensory cool down with scarves & bubbles.
11.15am-3.15pm Funky Monkeys / Groovy Movers (age 4-9) Workshop
Join us for our Tot Bop ‘Funky Monkeys / Groovy Movers’ Workshop, where children will experience an action packed day full of dance & fun! The workshop session includes a fun, funky and imaginative Tot Bop dance class, confidence building games and activities, arts & crafts and learning a choreographed dance routine to present to the parents at the end of each day. This extended session is drop off only. Please send your child in with a packed lunch and a refillable water bottle.
