​Rosemary Woodwark School of Dance

The Melody Movement syllabus has been specially developed by Jill Bridger.

 

It is designed to promote young children’s physical fitness, coordination and early learning skills. For children aged 2 upwards.

 

Melody Movement introduces children to dance and movement using the natural actions of the body such as running, walking, jumping, hopping, skipping and galloping.  

 

It is structured to aid children’s physical development, coordination, spatial awareness, creativity and self-expression, working individually, with a partner, or as a group.

Melody Movement also introduces children to other fundamental curriculum learning skills such as counting, colour and shape recognition, vocabulary and language skills.  The strength of the system is that learning is achieved through imaginative movement which is enjoyable and fun.

Jill says, “Melody Movement instills a love of dance making it a positive element of their early lives which stays with them.  They learn from a young age how music, movement, dance and the imagination can be combined to tell a story and convey emotions.”
