What is the Mindful Movers Program?

Are you craving a little "me time" while giving your child an enriching and screen-free experience?

The Mindful Movers Program at Dance Moves of Charleston is the perfect solution for parents seeking balance.

Designed for boys and girls ages 3-5, this nurturing program offers your little one a world of movement, mindfulness, and fun. Each day, children explore yoga, meditation, dance, and creative play, helping them build physical coordination, emotional awareness, and self-expression—all while you enjoy a peaceful moment to yourself.

Give your child the gift of growth and connection in a safe, positive environment where they’ll thrive. Mindful Movers isn’t just a program; it’s a chance to recharge, for both you and your little one.

The Day at a glance:

Dance: Each morning the children begin with dance sessions where children can express themselves through movement. Our dance activities are designed to be both fun and educational, helping kids improve gross motor skills, coordination, balance, and rhythm. From preschool ballet to dance and tumbling to little kid hip-hop, our instructors create a supportive environment where every child can shine and have fun. 

Yoga: After snack time, the children will take a gentle yoga session, focusing on basic poses and breathing techniques that promote relaxation and self/body awareness. Our certified yoga instructors guide the children through fun and engaging yoga practices, encouraging mindfulness, imagination, and presence.

Meditation: Our young participants will enjoy a brief meditation session following yoga. Through simple and age-appropriate meditation exercises, children learn to calm their minds and bodies, improve concentration, and develop a sense of inner peace.

Creative Play: To round out the morning, children will engage in creative play activities that stimulate their imagination and foster social skills. Whether it's arts and crafts, storytelling, obstacle courses, or group games, our creative play sessions are designed to inspire and delight and keep your children moving. 

At Dance Moves of Charleston, we believe in nurturing the whole child. Our Moms' Morning Out program provides a balanced blend of mindful practices and active movement, ensuring growth both mentally and physically. Join us for a morning filled with joy, creativity, and fun!
