How to start preschool dance classes at your dance school

Preschool classes are one of the best ways to grow a dance school. Here's how to launch them with confidence — and fill them.

Plan your preschool timetable

  • Pick times that suit families with young children: weekday mornings and Saturday mornings
  • Keep classes short and groups small
  • Decide whether to split ages 2–3 and 4–5, or run mixed 2–5 classes
  • Offer a free trial class to make the first step easy for parents

Give the classes a strong identity

Parents choose preschool classes on feel. A named, character-led class — "Ballerina Bear Ballet" or "Hip Hop Hippo" — is much easier to market than "Preschool Dance, Tuesdays 10am". Dancing Dots includes logos and branded assets for exactly this.

Make every class consistent

Word of mouth drives preschool enrolment. When every class follows a well-planned structure with great music and a reward at the end, parents talk about it at nursery pick-up — and your classes fill themselves.

The Dancing Dots syllabuses

Each one is a one-off purchase with lesson plans, original music, instruction videos, reward charts and marketing assets. No annual fees.

Frequently asked questions

What ages are the syllabuses for?

Every Dancing Dots syllabus is written for children aged 2 to 5. Some activities include notes for adapting them for younger or older children in the group.

Do my teachers need preschool experience?

No. Each class is broken into short activities with written notes and demonstration videos, so a newer teacher or assistant can follow the same structure as your most experienced teacher.

Is Dancing Dots a subscription or a licence with monthly fees?

No. Each syllabus is a one-off purchase of £375, or £800 for all three. There are no monthly fees, no annual renewals and no per-student charges, and your school keeps access for good.
