Meeting Standards. 
Exceeding Expectations!

MNM's curriculum is geared toward both boys and girls, incorporating various genres of dance, with ballet as its backbone. While technique and terminology are practiced, the primary goal is to develop confidence and self-esteem while providing an outlet for creative growth.

Committed to promoting healthy, happy bodies among children of all ages, MNM's curriculum is aligned with the Physical Education Model Content Standards for California Public Schools.

A Wholesome Approach

MNM specializes in providing an age-appropriate program with imaginative choreography and methods of teaching the children can relate to.  Students learn to explore their emotions and different ways to express them.  Rather than providing studio-like class discipline, MNM encourages children to be animated, silly and fearless in yoga, dance, hoop, and in life! 

It's the little things . . .

When it comes to performances, MNM's instructors take the time to ensure everything is perfectly placed, every heart is happy and every step is aced...  They take roll before the performance to ensure guests of each child are all present before the start.  This attention to detail has set MNM apart in the world of children's dance and fitness for the past 23 years.

Putting the Music In Motion

In MNM's classes, children dance to their favorite current music while also discovering the music that has shaped the world and likely influenced their parents’ lives.  They find rhythm to the sounds of Pop, Jazz, Broadway, Disney, the women of Africa, Salsa and more!

It's More Than Just A Performance . . .

Some children excel in class, but freeze up when it comes to performance time.  It can sometimes take 2-3 terms before the child builds the confidence to dance in front of their friends, family and people they don’t know.   Through this process, they’ve learned more than the latest pop moves, chassés or the grape vine.  They’ve overcome fears and developed skills they will carry with them for the rest of their lives. 

Toddlers too!

MNM’s toddler program promotes the early love of movement every child is born with.  The toddlers participate in activities focusing on body and spatial awareness, basic motor skills and fostering a sense of rhythm and expression.
