Somatic Imagery
for Kids
Give your child the gift of creativity, self-discovery and joy of movement
In an imagery dance class, participants get to experience an alternative way of being. They meet themselves and each other on a more perceptive mental plane; at the intersection of imagination and expressive movement. And that’s where the magic happens.
Why
Imagery & Dance?
Imagery is not just about make-believe; it’s a powerful tool that shapes the way we see the world. It’s not just about inventing stories or drawing fantastical creatures—it’s about creating the reality we choose to experience.
Imagery and dance go hand in hand, creating a powerful mind-body connection. Children learn how to infuse their movements with imagination and use the dance floor as a canvas to paint their stories and feelings. As children dance through their imagination, they’re not just exercising their bodies, they are discovering the extraordinary synergy between their thoughts and their movements. This practice strengthens their sensory perception and feeds their imagination, which ultimately positions them to be an inspired creator of their life experiences.
Teaching our children how to recognize and tune into their inner wisdom and express themselves authentically is the most important thing we can do in order to raise heart-centered visionaries for a better future.
Give Your Child the Gift of Seeing the Invisible
Imagination is not only the key to a child’s inner world, but also a foundational skill for life. In our class, we celebrate this incredible gift, recognizing that the seeds of imagination sown today become the reality of tomorrow.
It is important that children learn this fundamental fact of life – one that has been proven time and time again through countless studies – that our life experiences and outcomes are tightly interwoven with our mental imagery.
Imagine your life is a movie. Your thoughts are the script of the movie and your actions make up the scenes. You are the actor and the producer and the audience. Here is where it gets interesting: most people assume they need to operate within the confines of the movie set they find themselves in, but those who understand the true power of imagery realize they can change the entire movie set whenever they want.
Why don’t we gift our children the knowledge of building the most inspirational and fulfilling movie set?
Blending the Art of Dance with the Magic of Imagination
Imagery Dance is more than a dance class; it’s a transformative experience that cultivates many desirable qualities:
Focus and Creativity: Imagery Dance requires a unique blend of creativity and concentration. Through guided imagery sessions, children enhance their ability to focus, cultivating a skill that transcends the dance floor and positively impacts their academic and daily endeavors.
Self-awareness: Learning to observe the feedback loop between their minds and their bodies helps children develop the ability to tune into their inner compass, an invaluable skill for life.
Emotional Intelligence: Dancing provides a creative and non-verbal outlet for emotional expression. Children learn to connect with their own emotions and thoughts, fostering a deeper understanding of themselves and others. Understanding the emotions and movements of others cultivates empathy and improves the ability to connect with different perspectives.
Resilience: Children learn to use visualization as a tool to support their emotional well-being, elevate their mental states and facilitate desired biological changes.
Problem Solving: Imagery exercises encourage children to think outside the box, which facilitates creative problem solving skills.
