HOLIDAY CLOSURES
Steppin' Out will be closed on Thursday, November 28th for Thanksgiving, but will be open on Saturday, November 30th. Additionally, Steppin' Out will suspend regular classes for the winter holidays from Saturday, December 21st through Friday, January 3rd, but will offer camp during some of those days (see http://www.steppinoutsf. com/p/winter.html for the complete camp schedule).
MOVEMENT OF THE MONTH: OBSTACLE COURSES!
We do obstacle courses in so many of our classes not only because our dancers love them, but also because they build many different skills. They are great for improving gross motor coordination plus they teach dancers about patterns (a math skill!) and how to memorize sequences. This is especially helpful when they start to learn their performance dances after the winter holiday. You can create obstacle courses or sequences at home, whether with movement or activities. Try a morning pattern when getting ready for school, like grab lunch, put on backpack, find shoes!

QUICK TIP
As winter looms, remember to bundle up after class. Cold air hitting sweaty bodies makes for unhappy dancers, so keep yours happy with cosy layers.
