Choose a Dance Theme

The first step is to pick a dance theme that your child loves. Whether it’s centered around ballet, hip-hop, or a disco, having a theme will set the tone for the decorations, activities, and party favors.  

Popular Themes

• Ballet Princess: Think tutus, tiaras, and lots of pink!
• Hip-Hop Party: Bright colors, graffiti backdrops, and cool streetwear.
• Disco Fever: Sparkling decorations, disco balls, and funky outfits.
• Superhero Dance Off: Capes, masks, and energetic dance battles.

If none of these themes are your style and you can’t think of what to do, you could leave the planning to us. At our studio, each kid gets to pick out a sparkly outfit ensuring that all the kids feel included in this day of fun.

Send Creative Invitations

Set the stage with themed invitations. You can create custom invitations that match your chosen theme and include fun elements like glitter, stickers, or a mini dance step guide. Don’t forget to mention if guests should come dressed in their dance attire!

Decorations and Setup

Transform the party space with decorations that reflect your theme. Use balloons, streamers, and banners to create a festive atmosphere. A dance floor area is a must! You can also set up a photo booth with props related to your theme for some memorable snapshots.

 If you choose to celebrate your birthday at our studio we will provide color- coordinated plates, napkins, forks, table cloths, and a birthday banner for your little one’s special day! Of course you can still bring any additional decorations to the party as well.

Non-Stop Fun

Plan a variety of dance activities and games to keep the kids entertained and active. If booking through Nan’s School of Dance, one of our experienced instructors will kick the party off with stretching, dancing and games. Keeping the kids on their feet until it’s time for cake or presents allows you to enjoy the party as well since you won’t have to worry about entertaining the group.

Game Ideas for Your Birthday Party at Home

When hosting your own dance birthday party, here are a few ideas to help your kid and their friends have a blast:

• Dance Freeze: Play music and have the kids dance around. When the music stops, they must freeze in place. Anyone who moves is out until the next round.
• Dance Battle: Divide the kids into teams and have a dance-off. This can be especially fun with hip-hop or any music specific to your child’s theme.
• Limbo: See how low the kids can go with a limbo contest.

These are just a few dance inspired takes on classic kids games, the options are endless. Just remember having fun is the most important part.

Snacks and Refreshments

Keep the energy up with kid-friendly snacks and drinks. You can have themed treats like ballet slipper cookies, disco ball cake pops, or superhero sandwiches. Don’t forget to keep plenty of water and juice on hand to keep the dancers hydrated. We recommend juice boxes and water bottles to help prevent spills on the floors.

Capture the Memories

Make sure to capture plenty of photos and videos of the fun. Set up a DIY photo booth with props and use your phone to take the pictures. Not only does this save money, but you won’t have to wait to receive photos from a professional days after the event. Sharing these memories with your guests after the party is a great way to show that you appreciate them being there for you kid.

• Dance advice: Why am I cramping?
• The Importance of Taking Care of Your Feet in Dance

1. Energy Levels

Dancing is a physically demanding activity that requires a significant amount of energy. Consuming a balanced diet ensures that you have the stamina to sustain long rehearsals, intense training sessions, and performances. Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy for your body, so make sure to include plenty of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables in your diet.

2. Muscle Health

Proteins are essential for muscle repair and growth. After a strenuous dance session, your muscles need protein to recover and strengthen. Include lean protein sources such as chicken, fish, tofu, beans, and legumes in your meals to support muscle health.

3. Bone Strength

Strong bones are crucial for dancers to prevent injuries and support their weight during jumps and lifts. Calcium and vitamin D are vital for bone health. Dairy products, leafy green vegetables, and fortified foods are excellent sources of calcium. Sun exposure and foods like fish and egg yolks can help you get enough vitamin D.

4. Hydration

Dehydration can lead to fatigue, muscle cramps, and decreased performance. Drink plenty of water throughout the day, especially before, during, and after dance sessions. Drinks packed with electrolytes can also help replenish lost minerals during intense workouts.

5. Immune Function

A healthy immune system is essential to keep you from getting sick and missing valuable training time. Vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, zinc, and iron play a crucial role in immune function. Citrus fruits, nuts, seeds, and lean meats can help boost your immune system.

6. Eat Regularly

Skipping meals can lead to low energy levels and decreased performance. Aim to eat small, balanced meals and snacks every 3-4 hours to keep your energy levels stable throughout the day.

7. Balance Your Plate

Ensure each meal includes a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Carbohydrates provide energy, proteins support muscle repair, and fats are essential for overall health. Incorporate a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables to get a range of vitamins and minerals.

8. Pre-Performance Nutrition

Before a performance or intense training session, eat a meal that is high in carbohydrates and moderate in protein. Avoid high-fat and high-fiber foods that can cause digestive discomfort. A good pre-performance meal might include a turkey sandwich on whole grain bread with a side of fruit.

9. Post-Performance Recovery

After dancing, consume a snack or meal that includes both carbohydrates and proteins to replenish energy stores and aid in muscle recovery. Greek yogurt with berries or a smoothie with banana and protein powder are great options.

10. Listen to Your Body

Pay attention to how your body responds to different foods. Everyone’s nutritional needs are different, so it’s important to find what works best for you. If you feel sluggish or experience digestive issues, consider adjusting your diet and consulting with a nutritionist if needed.

Build Healthy Habits and Achieve Your Goals

Nutrition plays a vital role in a dancer’s life, directly impacting performance, recovery, and overall health. By prioritizing a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients, dancers can ensure they have the energy, strength, and resilience needed to excel in their craft. Remember, taking care of your body through proper nutrition is an investment in your dance career and well-being. So, fuel up, stay hydrated, and keep dancing!

• Dance advice: Why am I cramping?
• The Importance of Taking Care of Your Feet in Dance

Dance is an art form that requires discipline, respect, and a strong sense of community. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned dancer, understanding and practicing good dance etiquette is essential for maintaining a positive and productive environment in the studio. At Nan’s School of Dance, we emphasize the importance of proper behavior to ensure that everyone can learn and grow in a supportive setting. Here are some key do’s and don’ts to keep in mind during your dance classes.

What To Do:

Arrive on Time

Punctuality is a sign of respect for both your instructor and your classmates. Arriving on time allows you to participate in the full warm-up, which is crucial for preventing injuries and preparing your body for the class. If you happen to be late, enter quietly and join the class without disrupting the ongoing session.

Dress Appropriately

Wearing the right attire is not just about looking the part; it’s about safety and functionality. Ensure that you wear the appropriate dancewear for your class type, whether it’s ballet, jazz, hip-hop, or any other style. Comfort is optimal for practice, but dressing the part shows professionalism and that you’re preparing for competitions. We would recommend that you tie back your hair, and don’t wear long jewelry (such as long necklaces and loose bracelets) to avoid getting in your way during practice.

Respect Personal Space

Dance requires movement and often, close proximity to others. Be mindful of personal space and avoid bumping into or crowding your fellow dancers. If you’re practicing a formation, adjust your movements accordingly to ensure everyone has enough room to dance comfortably.

Clean Up After Yourself

After class, make sure to pick up any personal belongings, trash, or equipment you’ve used. This simple act of cleaning up helps maintain a tidy and organized studio, making it a pleasant space for everyone.

Encourage and Support Your Peers

A positive attitude goes a long way in creating a supportive community. Encourage and support your fellow dancers by offering constructive feedback, celebrating their achievements, and being a source of motivation. Remember, everyone is on their own journey and a little kindness can make a big difference.

Show Gratitude

Expressing gratitude towards your instructor and peers fosters a positive and respectful environment. A simple thank you at the end of class can go a long way in showing appreciation for their efforts and support.

What Not To Do:

Interrupting the Instructor

Listening to your instructor is the key for your learning and progression. Avoid talking when the instructor is giving instructions or demonstrating movements. If you have a question, wait for an appropriate moment, such as during a break or when the instructor invites questions. This helps maintain a focused and respectful atmosphere in the studio.

Using Your Phone During Class

Your phone can be a major distraction, not only to you but also to those around you. Keep your phone on silent or, better yet, leave it in your bag during class. Engaging fully with the session helps you get the most out of your time in the studio and shows respect for the learning environment.

Bringing Food or Drinks (Except Water) into the Studio

Food and sugary drinks can create a mess and attract pests, which is why they should be left outside the studio. Water, however, is essential for staying hydrated, so bring a bottle and take sips during breaks to keep your energy levels up.

Dirty Shoes

Your dance shoes are for the studio floor and wearing them outside can damage them and bring dirt into the studio. Have a designated pair of shoes for dancing and change into them once you arrive. This helps keep the studio floor clean and in good condition. If you like to use one pair of shoes, that’s fine too, as long as you’re mindful of what’s on the bottom of your feet before walking into the studio.

Comparing Yourself to Others

It’s easy to fall into the trap of comparing yourself to others, but this can be detrimental to your own progress and self-esteem. Focus on your personal growth and set your own goals. Celebrate your accomplishments, no matter how small, and understand that each dancer has a unique path.

Remember to Have Fun

Good dance etiquette is fundamental in creating a respectful, productive, and enjoyable atmosphere in the studio. By following these do’s and don’ts, you contribute to a positive learning environment where everyone can thrive. At Nans Dance, we are committed to fostering a community where dancers can grow, learn, and express themselves through the beautiful art of dance. So, next time you step into the studio, remember these guidelines and dance with respect and joy.

1. Plan Ahead

Before heading out, research the area you’ll be visiting. Look for local dance studios or community centers offering drop-in classes. This can be a fun way for your child to experience new dance styles and meet other young dancers.

2. Utilize Online Resources

In today’s digital age, staying connected to dance has never been easier. Make use of online dance classes and tutorials available on platforms like YouTube or specialized dance websites. Our blog at Nan’s School of Dance may also offer online resources or recommended routines for maintaining technique and practicing dance this summer.

3. Create a Travel-Friendly Dance Routine

Encourage your child to develop a short, travel-friendly dance routine they can practice daily. This routine could include warm-ups, stretches, and a few favorite dance moves. Keeping it simple ensures it’s easy to do even in a small space, like a hotel room or vacation rental.

4. Stay Active with Fun Activities

Incorporate activities that naturally involve movement. Swimming, hiking, and playing at the beach are excellent ways to keep your child active and engaged. These activities help maintain their stamina and flexibility, which are crucial for dancing.

5. Pack Portable Dance Equipment

Bring along lightweight, portable dance equipment such as a yoga mat for stretching or resistance bands for strength exercises. This can make it easier for your child to keep up with their conditioning routine.

6. Encourage Daily Stretching

Make stretching a daily habit. Not only does this help maintain flexibility, but it also keeps your child’s muscles ready for when they return to their regular dance classes. Set aside a specific time each day, perhaps in the morning or before bed, for a quick stretching session. 

7. Practice Mindfulness and Rest

Vacation is also about rest and recovery. Encourage your child to practice mindfulness activities like yoga or meditation. These practices can help with mental focus and relaxation, which are beneficial for dancers.

Keep the Rhythm Alive

Vacations are the perfect time for your child to unwind and explore new places, but they don’t have to leave their love for dance behind. By planning ahead, utilizing online resources, and incorporating fun activities, you can ensure that dance remains a part of their vacation. Whether it’s a daily stretch, a short dance routine, or even a family dance-off, these simple yet effective strategies will help your child maintain their skills and stay active. Keep the rhythm alive, and your child will return to their regular dance classes refreshed, inspired, and ready to shine.

Through dance, crafts, and storytelling, kids can explore new ideas and express themselves in unique ways. These creative experiences are not only enjoyable but also contribute to cognitive development and problem-solving skills.

Building Confidence and Independence

Summer camp experiences help children build confidence and independence. By trying new activities, overcoming challenges, and achieving goals, kids gain a sense of accomplishment and self-esteem. The supportive and nurturing environment at our camps encourages children to step out of their comfort zones and discover their potential.

Structure and Routine

While summer is a time for relaxation, maintaining a sense of structure can be beneficial for children. Our camps provide a balanced routine of fun and educational activities, ensuring that kids remain engaged and productive throughout the day. This structure helps to prevent the summer slide and keeps children’s minds and bodies active.

At Nan’s School of Dance, we strive to create a welcoming and joyful atmosphere where every child can create wonderful memories that they will cherish for years to come.

Enroll in a Summer of Fun

Choosing to enroll your child in summer camp at Nan’s School of Dance is more than just signing them up for an activity; it’s giving them a multifaceted experience that contributes to their physical health, emotional well-being, and cognitive development.

Keep Your Kids Active and Engaged

The long summer days offer plenty of time for children to become absorbed in screens. While a little downtime with TV or video games is okay, too much can lead to a sedentary lifestyle, which is not ideal for growing children. Dance classes provide a fantastic alternative, keeping kids physically active and engaged in a structured way.

Dancing is not just another form of exercise; it’s a fun and dynamic way to promote physical health. Regular dance sessions help improve flexibility, coordination, balance, and strength. Moreover, unlike many traditional sports, dance classes are indoors, which provides a comfortable environment away from the summer heat. This setting allows children to burn energy and stay fit without the risk of heat exhaustion, making dance an ideal summer activity.

Watch Skills Flourish in a Rewarding Environment

For parents, there’s a unique joy in watching your child grow and excel in their interests. Dance classes offer visible progress and development, which can be incredibly rewarding. As your child learns new dance moves and hones their skills, you’ll see a boost in their confidence and pride in their achievements.

Nan’s School of Dance provides an encouraging atmosphere where children can explore various dance styles and showcase their talents. The summer dance program is designed to cater to all levels, from beginners to advanced dancers, ensuring that each child can progress at their own pace. By the end of the summer, many dancers can participate in recitals or informal performances, which serve as a wonderful way for them to demonstrate what they’ve learned and for parents to see the fruits of their child’s hard work.

Cognitive Enrichment That’s Never Boring

Dancing isn’t just physically stimulating—it’s also cognitively enriching. Engaging in dance helps children develop better spatial awareness, learn pattern recognition, and enhance memory by remembering steps and routines. These skills are beneficial not just on the dance floor but in academic pursuits as well.

What makes dance a standout choice is that it manages to combine cognitive development with sheer enjoyment. While traditional educational activities can sometimes feel like an extension of school, dance classes are perceived by kids as play, not work. This disguise of learning as fun keeps children mentally sharp during their break from school without the boredom of typical educational activities.

Enroll in a Summer of Fun

Choosing to enroll your child in summer dance classes at Nan’s School of Dance is more than just signing them up for an activity; it’s giving them a multifaceted experience that contributes to their physical health, emotional well-being, and cognitive development. It’s a decision that will keep your child active, engaged, and learning in one of the most enjoyable ways possible during their summer break.

So, whether your child is new to dance or looking to continue their training over the summer, Nan’s offers a welcoming and supportive environment where they can thrive. Remember, it’s never too late to start dancing, and the benefits your child will gain are invaluable. This summer, choose to invest in your child’s growth and happiness with dance.

Set Goals

One of the best ways to stay motivated and inspired is by setting goals. Encourage your dancer to think about what they want to achieve over the summer. These goals can be as small or as big as they want, but it’s important to write them down and have a plan to achieve them. For example, a dancer might want to perfect a particular dance move or learn a new style of dance. Whatever their goal may be, it will give them something to work towards and keep them motivated.

Try Something New

Summer is a great time to try new things and explore different dance styles. Encourage your dancer to try a new class or attend a workshop in a style they’ve never tried before. This can help them broaden their horizons and discover new ways of expressing themselves through dance.

Watch Dance Performances

Watching dance performances is a great way to get inspired and learn from other dancers. Encourage your dancer to watch videos of dance performances online or attend a live performance in person if possible. They can learn from the choreography, techniques, and styles of other dancers and incorporate them into their own dance routines.

Create a Dance Space

Creating a dance space at home can help your dancer get into the right mindset and feel inspired to dance. This can be as simple as clearing out a corner of a room or setting up a small dance studio. Having a designated space for dance can help your dancer feel more motivated to practice and explore their creativity.

Collaborate with Other Dancers

Collaborating with other dancers can be a great way to stay inspired and motivated. Encourage your dancer to connect with other dancers online or in person and collaborate on dance projects or choreography. This can help them learn from each other and discover new ways of approaching dance.

Take Breaks

Finally, it’s important to remember that taking breaks is just as important as practicing. Encourage your dancer to take breaks when they need to and enjoy other activities during the summer. This can help prevent burnout and keep them feeling motivated and inspired when they return to dancing.
