You arrive a bit early to review your class plan, set up the space, and greet children and caregivers as they check in. As music starts, you guide warm-ups, then move into skill-building combinations and short routines tailored to the group’s age (3–5, 6–9, or 10+). Between songs, you offer clear cues, quick water breaks, and encouragement that helps each child feel capable. You close class with a cool-down and a brief wrap-up so families leave knowing what was practiced and what’s coming next. The schedule is TBD, with sessions focused on creating a fun, safe, and consistent experience.
