Family Dance Classes
Sept 2010
My husband and I used to go to dance classes before we had a
baby- I like to dance and he's a percussionist. We had a lot
of fun dancing west african but haven't been in a few years
and are a little out of touch with what's going on in the
bay area. We're looking for a dance class (any type) that's
welcoming to small children- either they are free to dance
or run around and play. We want our 15 month old to have
exposure to dance and music and we also really want to dance
ourselves! Any ideas? Amanda
soul sanctuary, 11-1 sundays at ashkenaz.com might be what
you want? very friendly. anon
There is a wonderful family-friendly freestyle dance jam on
Sunday mornings at Ashkenaz. Kids of all ages are welcome.
It's not a dance 'class' but we have a lot of fun. The DJs
play a wide variety of music (appropriate for all ages). We
have music from 11am to 12:45pm, with a closing circle
(including organic fruit) afterward.
Come check it out!

It's not structured or organized dance, but rather just a
big space where anyone can come and move to the music. I
take my almost 4 y.o daughter there and we have a lot of fun
in a open, kid friendly environment. Often there are at
least 3 or 4 other kids of various ages, as well as adults
of all ages. Zac Pine who organizes it brings various props
and pens & paper for kids to use if they're not into dancing
& at the end we all get in a circle and he serves fresh,
organic fruit. Hope to see you there..........

I'm looking for a dance or movement class to take with my six-year-old
daughter.
Rather than sit and watch, I'd like to get up and moving! I love folk
dance, but pretty much any kind of class in the afternoon/evening in the
Berkeley area would be great.
My 6 year old daughter has watched me ballroom dance and now wants to try it. There is a Saturday afternoon
class that is FREE for kids and their parent at the Allegro ballroom in Emeryville. Broad range of ages. Saw
it last week and it looked like they were having lots of fun. Very lively young couple in their 20s teach it
