Well-being classes in Harrogate for 0-11yrs
Rising Stars
Designed as a follow-on class for the ever popular Suzie Beats classes for 0-3yrs, we're thrilled to be expanding our Rising Stars well-being classes to more age groups and children than ever before.
Rising Stars sessions combine drama, yoga and mindfulness into an immersive learning experience teaching children to shine bright.
Sessions include yoga, drama, stories, movement, singing, dance, speech exercises, along with mindfulness and relaxation. The sessions have been designed to help children relax, improve their self-esteem, focus, be imaginative and creative, sleep better and make friends…. And to the children it feels like “magic club”!
Each session teaches age-appropriate yoga and mindfulness techniques through story adventures. Participating pupils will learn how to manage difficult emotions, how to bring their own ideas to life and improve focus and self-esteem. Children are encouraged to try new things embrace a growth mindset and believe in the power of themselves and their brains, developing lots of confidence along the way.
Classes are taught by our Rising Stars teachers who specialises in Children’s Performance Art training, Educational Theatre and teaching Yoga & Mindfulness to Children.

If your child is at one of these schools, you can book onto sessions here.
Musical Theatre
After running a successful Musical Theatre session exclusively for Oatlands Infants last term, we are delighted to be able to open these classes up to more children this spring. Musical theatre sessions combine dance, singing, acting and physical theatre. These sessions work on skills such as: connecting movement and actions to the lyrics, retaining these movements and lyrics, adding new elements and layers to the performance each week, spatial awareness and partner work. All while maintaining our ethos of giving every child a space to shine bright. As with all our well-being classes, there is also a focus on mindfulness and relaxation with our cool down sequence to reflect on everything we have achieved.

Creative Dance
Creative dance sessions are a fabulously fun way for your children to get moving in a free and creative way. We will work through different dance/movement styles in each class to all their favourite songs creating a safe and exciting environment for free expression. As with all our classes there is a well-being focus. For this class it will be focussed around what the different movements and music make you feel. It will help your children to understand how their emotions develop physically and give them the knowledge of what helps them feel good. As well as the emotional benefits, there are also the physical benefits; fun energetic movement, spatial awareness, coordination and control, breath work, warm up, and cool down practice. The class is flexible and led by the needs and wants of the children, with song requests and dance styles taken into consideration for the following week.
