Our Classes

‘Tiny Dancers’ designed for 18 months- 4 years
Tiny Dancers introduce children to the foundations of dance through song and storytelling. Our sessions support and nurture children’s development, whilst having lots of fun alongside parent participation. Tiny Tales Dance supports preschool children, building their early movement skills to combining learning and dance whilst developing their imaginations. Our classes are more than just dance. We focus on building a range of important skills, including emotional wellbeing. Parents must attend the class and can watch your mini movers shine during our fun filled session. Our classes are carefully based around the EYFS curriculum to suit all the children’s ages and stages. Throughout the class we focus on different questions and levels of movement for our Tiny Dancer’s development.

Our Tiny Tales syllabus has been founded and carefully created by both a Professional Dance Teacher and a highly experienced EYFS Teacher with many years teaching experience in schools. We have worked in collaboration to ensure our classes are all inclusive and are age appropriate, built around the UK Governments Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum. Our classes support the children’s early development and each week have a familiar structure but with exciting new themes.
As well as focusing on children’s physical development and learning the core principles of dance, here at Tiny Tales Dance we also prioritise building children’s self-esteem and confidence.
Our classes support children’s personal, social and emotional skills through mindfulness activities during our weekly sessions. Our Tiny Tales dancers might only be little, but just like us, they have big emotions.
We support children in building their emotional awareness as well as providing children with new skills and tools to use outside of the sessions to support their emotional wellbeing, equipping them on their journey into the big wide world.
Most importantly our classes provide a safe environment for you to make special memories with your
little Tiny Tales Dancer.

About Me
Miss Jessica
Hello my Tiny Dancers. My name is Miss Jessica and it is my pleasure to lead you on a magical storytelling adventure through song and dance. I studied at Performers college, which is where I also received my teaching qualifications in Ballet, Tap & Modern. I have been a professional dancer, dancing around the world on cruise ships, in Pantomimes and even kicking the Can Can in Paris. Teaching young children has always been a true passion of mine. I am dedicated in helping to support children on their journey in learning new skills as well as boosting their confidence. I am a very proud mummy of 2 and during their early years I have always sought to find exciting children’s classes that capture their imagination, support their learning and development as well as providing a safe environment to make special memories with my 2 babies. This has truly inspired me to want to create Tiny Tales Dance and provide this opportunity for other families. Only little for such a short time, these early years are so important and I feel privileged to be a small part of your children’s journeys. I am DBS checked, have paediatric first aid training and public liability insurance. I am really looking forward to welcoming you to our enchanting classes soon and working together to build a love for learning and dance.
Miss Lucy

I am a fully qualified EYFS teacher, with many years’ experience working in schools, teaching in both Nursery and Reception. The Early Years are so important and I have had the privilege of nurturing young minds and building their love for learning. I have always been very enthusiastic about storytelling. I believe in the magic of storytelling and how it can empower children to explore new worlds and discover their own voices. I am now a proud mummy to 2 young boys. Being able to help create a place where children can learn, have fun and create special moments to cherish forever is a true privilege. I look forward to sharing this magical adventure with you all!
