Programs
Move & Play
Created for children who have not yet entered kindergarten (approximately ages 3 to 5 years old), Move & Play provides the
opportunity to experience the fun of moving to music, helping with the early development of physical
motion, rhythm, and coordination. Children are
guided through act
ivities such as bending, stretching and
moving and progresses to loco-motor movements including marching,
galloping and jumping. Children also focus on learning to follow
directions and are introduced to dancing as part of a group. Individual expression and
creativity is encouraged as each child learns to use their body.
KF offers two Move & Play class offerings: one tailored for children with Down syndrome and another tailored for children with Autism spectrum disorders.

Move & Groove
Created for children ranging from kindergarten to grade 5 (approximately ages 6 to 10 years old), Move & Groove provides the
opport
unity to experience the fun of moving to music, the excitement of
dance, and to challenge oneself to
achieve. Children begin to develop a sense of poise and
confidence, and at the same time, they are encouraged to explore their own
creative expression of music and dance movement. The use of props such
as scarves, fans, and balls, makes this a fun and playful experience while introducing the children to the social skills of group dynamics,
self-control, and listening.

On-Site Dance
"On Site Dance" is performed in variance venues, such as schools and churches. This endeavor, with the cooperation with the Kravenko Youth Ballet company, offers a program of dance performances, education, and outreach for children.
Our aim is to promote a shared experience of the art of dance and to share the mission of the Kravenko Foundation. It is hoped by providing these opportunities we can increase awareness of what is possible for children, specifically those with physical challenges or developmental disorders, as well as those who are at risk, and to promote positive responses to dance.
