Dance Classes

The Westchester Lariats offers dance classes for children in grades K-8, Monday afternoons during the school year. In the early grades, children are taught stretching exercises, rhythm, basic dance steps, and a variety of dance types from many cultures. The class for grades 4-8 increases in complexity of dance steps and continues introducing dances from around the world: European folk, Polynesian, Mexican, American traditional, vintage, social and many more! At the end of the spring session, children in the classes will be invited to perform in the Westchester Lariats annual Spring Show. Children who take these classes are eligible to join the performing Westchester Lariats when they are at least 10 years of age, or are in the 5th grade.
