Yesterday I had the first session of my kids ballroom class. I think it went pretty well. I have two young girls taking the class, one of them is five, and the other is three.
I was wondering if a person of three years old was too young to have in the class. I love the little ones, but I think I may have to raise the minimum age from three to maybe four or five. She was just not very interested. Maybe in a year or so she will be more interested. I remember an hour being much longer when I was younger, so I fully understand why she had a hard time focusing.
The five-year-old girl was pretty well behaved. She listened very intently most of the time, and I didn't have to call her attention very often. She picked the steps up pretty fast as well.
Overall it was a good experience. I gained some knowledge in how to teach younger children, and I decided that three-year-olds have better things to do then listen to me for an hour.
I also had my Swing class which no one attended, other than my parents of course. They don't exactly count as students though, so if anyone reading this could attend, I would greatly appreciate it. Check the calendar at: http://aaronballroom.webs.com/apps/calendar/ to find the time of the Swing class, as well as my kids class.
Thank you,
Aaron Mullen: Ballroom Dance Instructor
