This program meets the standards of preschool educational curriculum for the "Step Up" program, written by Michelle Breitner. Carma Lee has drawn from her extensive experience and added several more educational layers to this program such as:

As with all structured P.E. programs, children will engage in improving their gross motor skills and coordination, as well as balance and core strengthening. As an additional benefit, elements of dance, kickboxing, and sports training are integrated into this program. Children will also learn that certain foods are good for certain parts of their bodies (i.e. tomatoes for their hearts, carrots for their eyes). This colorful display of vital information takes color recognition to a whole new level. Monthly topics include: the heart, the lungs, the muscles, the bones, the brains, the mouth, the hair and nails, eyes and ears, smelling and tasting, as well as eating foods that represent the colors of the rainbow. All equipment, educational products, recipes, activity sheets, and student rewards are supplied by Carma's Creations.

Dance Classes

(Grouped by ages: 3's, 4's and 5's, and 6-8's)

Carma's dance training spans 3 decades. She has been teaching dance for 20 years and owned her own dance company for 10 of those years in South Florida. She has produced dance productions in New York, California, Rhode Island, Connecticut, North Carolina, Florida and Italy. Throughout her dance career, she competed nationally and internationally. Carma has won several trophies and awards for her dance ability as well as her choreography.

The goal of every class is to build each dancer's self–esteem while developing an appreciation for the art of dance. Carma's classes are upbeat, positive and structured which allows for learning and fun to take place simultaneously.

In each class, ballet, jazz, and tap technique will be taught relative to the age of the dancers. Each class will consist of: a warm up, floor work, technique time, a routine segment, a cool down, and a review. The classes are designed to increase coordination and motor skills as well as confidence and flexibility. A final performance for family and friends will be held at the end of the school year.

Year Long Creative Movement Program — Ages 4–7

This creative movement curriculum consists of warm–up exercises, dance steps, pre–ballet movements, story interpretation and movement exploration. We use soft structures for gross motor development through imaginative stories and dances. These creative movement and dance classes provide developmentally appropriate opportunities to gain balance, strength, self–expression, confidence, and sequential learning. This allows children to learn at their own pace. The activities target large and small muscles through strengthening exercises as well improving coordination, increasing muscle strength, and developing muscle control and fine motor skills. Children have shown an increase in their self–confidence and improved memory skills from this training. This age appropriate cardiovascular workout is followed by cool down activities.
