Ages 8-11
DDANW Moonwalkers Program is designed to enhance coordination, technical skill, fitness, musicality, and a passion for dance through graded levels of instruction in the areas of rhythm, balance, strength, proper use and positioning of supporting muscles and posture-related anatomy. We offer additional graduated levels to challenge and continue building skill levels in our Accelerated Program as “Sparks” or “Flames”. Moonwalkers perform at our DDANW end of year recital in June.
