About Us
Tanzpro (Biodanza for kids) with Liz
Calling Ballarat children who love to move and dance, to be creative and share stories!
In Term Two at the Ballarat East Neighbourhood House at Barkly Square, our Participant Coordinator, Liz Wade, will begin offering “Tanzpro – Biodanza (Dance of Life) for Children” courses, for children aged three to six years and six to twelve years.
The program involves dance, story sharing, art, imaginary play and movements with music, curated for children.
Tanzpro is an evidence-based program that supports children developmentally with emotional regulation, empathy, relaxation, self esteem and increased skills in communication and confidence, in a fun and engaging way.
Sessions include:
- A shared story: A journey of discovery to another country and its people, geography and customs. Within each story are woven themes that highlight values such as joy, friendship, care for living beings, courage and solidarity.
- A dance of the theme (Biodanza) with curated music.
- Artistic expression: Children have the opportunity to process the experience pictorially via drawing, art and imaginary journeys.
Children will develop an awareness of self-perception, growing their identity and developing their self-confidence. They will learn to:
- Express their potential
- Have courage to take risks through creativity
- Respect each other
- Feel cared for.
This course encourages pathways to developing empathy which is a fundamental skill to foster lifelong healthy relationships.
