for our littlest dancers


Our Little Foxes Dance Programme offers four levels of dance classes for babies, toddlers and young children aged 6 months- 7 years.

Our mission at Little Foxes is to create a dance community where the joy of movement meets a commitment to excellence. We strive to make dance an exciting journey, fostering a love for dance through laughter and motivation and creating a stage where young dancers shine brightly. Our dedicated teaching staff uphold professional standards, ensuring technical proficiency while maintaining a positive and enjoyable atmosphere.
​

Our classes are designed around the EYFS framework and the introductory levels of our affiliated syllabi and offer our littlest dancers the chance to experience dance in a safe and encouraging environment whilst developing their social and motor skills. Once children reach Year 3 of Primary School, they can graduate to our Main School classes at Fox Academy of Dance.

Our Little Foxes take part in their very own full-scale Summer Show each year.


We can’t wait to welcome you and your little one to our dance family!
