bodsier Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 He loves having a dance with me, may as well make the most of it whilst he's still keen....

redjam Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 You are lucky. My 10-year-old practically weeps with mortification if I so much as sway my hips to the radio.

Firm_Footing Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Hi Bodsier, I run movement workshops for parents and their babies/young children in Forest Hill and was really interested in your post. My groups usually are a bit holistic and therapeutic as there is playful movement time followed by some relaxation/bonding time. It's not a mini disco, but can involve music and usually has some fun props (such as parachutes) to help encourage playful movement. A few people have mentioned to me in passing about having one-off groups for parents and older children. I thought I'd jump on your post to see if this sounds like something you would want to do with your son, and find out if this is of interest to anyone else here. I could certainly look at putting something on in the near future. My next workshop dates for younger children and families is on March 18, but I have another date on April 29 when I could look at including an older family session too if there was enough interest!Katherine(Firm Footing Movement) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/185006-where-can-i-go-for-a-dance-with-my-11-year-old/#findComment-1227389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodsier Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 Ha red jam, you made me chuckle. Firm footing, your workshops sound great, however I think my son is thinking more dance central songs ie Eric b and Rakim, Stevie Wonder, sister sledge and on a continuum, he just keeps going. Guess we need to have a party, we can just celebrate Spring.....

yeknomyeknom Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 You could buy a street dance video, maybe a Diversity dvd. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/185006-where-can-i-go-for-a-dance-with-my-11-year-old/#findComment-1227503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
comomum Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 My daughter goes to a Street Dance class at her school run by an external teacher called Mickey. This term they're dancing to the new Bruno Mars track and last term it was Eve, 'Shake your Tambourine', so music wise it's not too far off the mark. She teaches Zumba at Beckenham Spa and I have a feeling you can take kids there too- might be worth calling them up and asking?
