    Early Childhood Program

    Early Childhood Dance Classes in Peachtree City, GA for children ages 2 - 6 years old
    Guided by the belief that dance serves as a powerful vehicle for growth in the early years, Georgia Academy of Dance & the Performing Arts advocates for the integration of dance education into the lives of young learners. Recognizing the immense potential of a well-structured and highly regarded dance curriculum, GAD emphasizes the importance of early exposure to quality dance programs as a foundational element in unlocking a world of opportunities and fostering a future brimming with promise for every child.
    Director Sherri Davis created all aspects of the Early Childhood Program including our Early Childhood Presentations that you see today. The goal of the Early Childhood Program is to inspire young dancers to be creative and comfortable with movement. We believe in celebrating each potential dancer to build  self-esteem through the art of dance.
